In "The Regal Eagle," Mr. Lodge's new video camera captures the goings-on at the Lodge mansion, but his son Leroy has his own lens—and his own take on the action. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with vibrant art by Stan Goldberg, this 1982 Archie adventure offers a playful, behind-the-scenes look at family dynamics through the lens of early home video. The cover, also by Goldberg, captures the moment with a sharp, energetic flair.

In "A Nose for News," Veronica sets out to expose Brenda Parr’s lack of journalistic savvy by planting a wildly implausible story—so absurd that only someone truly gullible would fall for it. But when Brenda dives in with surprising enthusiasm, chasing down leads with unwavering confidence, Veronica begins to wonder if she’s underestimated her rival all along.
