While Archie and Jughead’s usual antics fall flat, Betty steps in with a quiet determination that surprises everyone. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s classic art, Rudy Lapick’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s letters, this Double Digest tale captures the charm and camaraderie of Riverdale’s most iconic duo. The cover by Tim Kennedy and Bob Smith perfectly captures the moment’s mystery and whimsy.

In "It Takes Two to Tangle," Veronica’s pride is on the line when her father plans to feature her big catch in the paper he owns—especially since Betty’s been fishing too. With the stakes rising, Veronica’s determined to keep her victory spot, no matter what.

Betty and Veronica spend the day locked in a quiet standoff, each determined to keep an eye on the other—no sneaking off to meet Archie, no stolen moments, no surprises. With a mix of playful tension and sisterly rivalry, their watchful vigil becomes a test of loyalty, nerves, and just how far they’ll go to keep things on the straight and narrow.
Veronica's determined to land the lead in the school play—especially with a Hollywood scout in town—and she's willing to endure Jughead's direction to make it happen. With egos on the line and drama backstage, the spotlight might be brighter than anyone expected.
