Veronica #63

In "Beware of Aware-ness," Veronica finds herself unexpectedly admired by her father, Mr. Lodge, when he notices she’s doing something besides shopping or chasing boys—something that hints at a new side to her that even he didn’t see coming. Written by George Gladir and illustrated by Tim Kennedy, with inks by Rudy Lapick, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1997 issue captures a rare moment of quiet revelation in Riverdale. The cover, penciled and inked by Dan DeCarlo, perfectly captures the moment’s subtle shift in tone.
