☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Time for a Change," Archie’s world takes a sharp turn when Alex, fueled by wealth and arrogance, tries to claim Melody for himself—only to find her charm draws attention from every corner of Riverdale. With Josie and Pepper on the case, the trio must outwit Alex’s schemes before his latest obsession turns dangerous. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s classic art and Rudy Lapick’s crisp inks, this 2012 Double Digest tale delivers a fresh twist on familiar faces, all under Fernando Ruiz’s vibrant cover and Bob Smith’s dynamic inks.
When Archie Andrews and Mr. Weatherbee accidentally swap bodies using one of Dilton Doiley’s wild inventions, chaos ensues—Archie must navigate the principal’s office while Mr. Weatherbee faces the daunting task of delivering a speech to Superintendent Hassle, all while trying to keep his date with Veronica Lodge on track. With the whole school caught in the middle, even a few quick cameos from Jughead, Betty, and the gang aren’t enough to keep things from spinning out of control.
Svenson’s sudden excitement over a random number has everyone at Riverdale High buzzing—especially when he claims to have won the lottery. But when Mr. Weatherbee steps in to clarify, it’s clear the numbers he’s been staring at aren’t the ones that matter. Miss Beazly, Miss Grundy, and Miss Haggly watch in disbelief as the truth behind the mix-up begins to unfold.
Archie Andrews and Larry try to test a boat they’ve bought, only to find it stuck in the school pool after a misstep—leaving them locked out with Jughead Jones and Svenson, and Mr. Weatherbee looming nearby.
Jughead Jones convinces Archie, Betty, Veronica, and Reggie to trade skiing for sledding—claiming it's the safer choice—only to secretly use the money from selling their sleds to buy the skiis he's always wanted.
Archie Andrews is thrilled to be a shareholder in a company owned by Mr. Lodge—thanks to a generous gift from his dad, Fred Andrews—but his pride quickly turns to worry when he’s called on to cast the deciding vote in a crucial boardroom showdown. With the weight of responsibility on his shoulders and the eyes of Riverdale’s elite on him, Archie must navigate the unexpected pressures of business life, all while trying to keep his usual charm intact.
Josie, Melody, and Pepper embrace the latest trend of going barefoot, much to Albert’s dismay. When Mr. Tuttle steps in to put a stop to the barefoot antics, the trio reluctantly trade their sandals for shoes—though not before a few last defiant strides.
When Alexander Cabot III declares he can have anything he wants, his obsession with Melody lands her in trouble—especially when his wealth and influence draw unwanted attention. Josie and Pepper must act fast to rescue their friend from Alex’s mansion before his schemes take hold.
Josie and Alexandra Cabot go head-to-head in a high-stakes photography contest, their rivalry sharpened by the contrast between Josie’s vintage square box camera and Alexandra’s sleek, high-end equipment. With Melody and Pepper watching closely, the competition becomes less about the lens and more about what each girl sees through it.
