☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Real Thing," a seemingly ordinary beach bag sets off a chain reaction at Riverdale High when Veronica insists Archie ditch it after he teases her for lugging it around in winter. What starts as a minor prank quickly spirals as the bag passes from hand to hand, sparking confusion and unexpected moments across the school. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—inked by Rudy Lapick and lettered by Vincent DeCarlo—this lighthearted tale captures the chaos of teenage humor. The cover, by Stan Goldberg, perfectly captures the playful spirit of the story.
In "Slow Burn, Quick Freeze," Veronica finds herself torn between her usual rivalry with Betty and a sudden, unexpected crush on the new local hunk—forcing her to navigate jealousy, secrecy, and the awkward truth that she might actually want to be seen as more than just a rival. Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story captures the sharp, self-aware humor of teenage crushes and the lengths one goes to avoid getting caught in their own schemes.
Sabrina and her guardians face a chilly dilemma on their ski trip when they realize their magic is so limited that they can only cast one spell in a full day—leaving them to figure out how to stay warm, safe, and on the slopes with just one chance to use their powers.
In "Bag Holders," Archie’s casual comment about Veronica’s beach bag in winter sparks a chain reaction when she demands he toss it out—only for the bag to mysteriously circulate through the halls of Riverdale High, winding its way from student to student with no clear end in sight.
