☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Last Noelle," Sabrina's aunts' last-minute magical chaos threatens to ruin Christmas—so she sets a clever trap to strip them of their powers and force them to experience the holiday the old-fashioned way. Written by Bill Golliher and illustrated with timeless charm by Dan DeCarlo, this festive tale blends holiday spirit with a touch of witchy mischief, all wrapped in a cover by Bill Galvan.
When Santa’s daughter Noelle swaps her North Pole life for a taste of normal high school, Betty and Veronica find themselves caught between helping her fit in and risking a trip to the naughty list—especially if their antics go too far.
In "The Ol' Bawl Game," Betty’s relentless attempts to win Archie’s attention take a magical turn when an overeager (and utterly clueless) fairy godmother steps in—only to make things hilariously worse. Meanwhile, a well-meaning teacher struggles to keep Betty from turning the school walls into a permanent cry zone.
In "Too Much Love," Betty’s heartfelt celebration of her and Archie’s ten-year friendship spirals into an over-the-top display that has everyone—parents, friends, and even Archie’s mom—wondering if her affection might just push him away. The story captures the sweet, awkward tension of teenage romance, where good intentions and overwhelming feelings collide in the most relatable way.
In "Root of the Problem," Sabrina’s aunts’ last-minute magical chaos reaches a peak when Christmas is just days away and nothing’s ready. Determined to teach them a lesson, Sabrina cleverly tricks them into losing their magic—forcing them to plan, shop, and decorate like ordinary people.
Sabrina ducks into a lingerie shop for a quick browse, leaving Harvey to wait outside. When she emerges, she’s stunned to find a snowman standing where he was—no Harvey in sight, just a perfectly formed pile of snow in his place.
When Dilton’s remote-controlled Moose doll impresses Midge, Betty and Veronica team up to convince him to build a similar doll—this time with Archie as the star. The trio’s playful rivalry heats up as each girl tries to steer the project their way, turning a simple gadget into a high-stakes, laugh-filled showdown.
