Betty & Veronica (Jumbo Comics) Double Digest #41

In "Be Mine, My Love," Betty and Veronica trade their usual high school antics for a wild experiment: enrolling in a grueling cheerleading school, drawn by the promise of being surrounded by athletic guys. But when Miss Grundy and Coach Kleats pass them over in favor of Big Ethel—fearing their talent would overshadow the team’s focus—the girls find themselves in a surprising new kind of rivalry. Written by Al Hartley and illustrated by Al Hartley, with inks by Mario Acquaviva and letters by Bill Yoshida, this Double Digest adventure captures the classic Archie charm with a spirited twist. The cover, by Dan DeCarlo and Alison Flood, perfectly captures the playful energy of the issue.
