When Chuck Clayton introduces a new sidekick for Veronica Lodge’s superhero persona, Powerteen, the spotlight suddenly feels a little too bright—especially for a girl who’s used to being the star. With Midge Klump as Web Gal, Ethel Muggs as Energy Girl, and Monica Clayton stepping in as the younger, equally powered Powertween, the balance of power in Riverdale’s superhero scene shifts in unexpected ways. Archie and Betty watch the chaos unfold, wondering if this team-up will spark something great—or just more rivalry.
