    Scheduled to arrive in stores next week are Betty & Veronica #239, Betty & Veronica Digest #190, and Jughead’s Double Digest #146.  I’m particularly interested in Betty and Veronica Digest #190 as it features a back story/origin of Riverdale’s most recent new character Kumi.

    BETTY & VERONICA #239

    SCRIPT: Mike Pellowski.
    ART: Jeff Shultz.
    “Scrap Flap”: Veronica has no interest whatsoever in Betty’s new scrapbook hobby… until she meets the hunky scrapbook expert at the craft shop!
    SCRIPT: Craig Boldman.
    ART: Jeff Shultz.
    “Dancing Fool”: Inspired by a classic beach party movie, Veronica comes up with her own dance step guaranteed to make you flip… literally!
    SCRIPT: Kathleen Webb.
    ART: Jeff Shultz.

    BETTY & VERONICA DIGEST #190

    SCRIPT: Misako Rocks!
    ART: Jeff Shultz.
    “Bedtime Story”: A boy’s camping trip leaves the girls without plans for the weekend… until they decide to have a slumber party!  Of course, true to form, the party will involve every activity but “slumbering!”
