Betty & Veronica (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #3
In "That's the Ticket," Archie’s routine trip to the cleaners takes a surprisingly tender turn when he accidentally pricks his thumb while carrying his old baby blanket—prompting Betty and Veronica to witness him sucking his thumb. The moment sparks a mix of amusement and concern, with Veronica quickly distancing herself at the thought of Archie regressing, while Betty watches with a knowing smile. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Harry Lucey, this lighthearted slice of small-town life features Dan DeCarlo’s classic cover art, capturing the moment with his signature charm.
