In "The Big Adventure," Little Archie and Little Betty dive into a story within a story, as a comic book sparks a whimsical journey that takes an unexpected turn when it ends up behind Mr. Weatherbee's file cabinet. Written, drawn, and inked by Dexter Taylor, this 1982 annual offers a playful, self-referential twist on the Archie universe, all captured in a cover by Dexter Taylor.

In "The Worm's Eye," two bookworms dive into a story from a Little Archie comic that Little Betty hands to Little Archie—only to find themselves unexpectedly caught in the pages when the comic ends up behind Mr. Weatherbee’s file cabinet. The tale unfolds with quiet whimsy, following the tiny creatures as they navigate the strange world of a comic book from the inside out.
