In "A Likeness for Larceny," Jo finds herself caught in a bizarre twist when a portrait of Mr. Lodge, painted with uncanny precision, begins to exert a strange influence over him—whenever he looks into the eyes of his own image, he’s compelled to obey the painter’s commands. The story unfolds with a mix of playful suspense and classic Archie charm, as the line between art and manipulation blurs in unexpected ways.
Archie trades in his car for a motorcycle, convinced he’s finally ready to hit the road with the cool biker crowd. Veronica, determined to keep him from joining the scene, hires actors to stage a fake biker gang and scare him straight—before he’s fully in his element.
