    BETTY & VERONICA DOUBLE DIGEST #169
    “Big Brother Sister is Watching!”: When they find out she’s working at the Pembrooke café, Betty and Veronica enlist Marcy to spy on Cheryl and her friends.  That includes Archie, who’s been spending an awful lot of time in Pembrooke since Cheryl moved back there… and getting quite cozy with Cheryl’s friend Becky!

    “Dance, Dance, Dance!”:  It’s time for “Dancing with the Students” when Riverdale High holds a charity dance marathon!

    BETTY & VERONICA SPECTACULAR #88
    “Geeks Rule”: Betty and Archie get jobs on the “Geek Patrol,” a group of computer tech-sperts seen in last month’s VERONICA #193.  To keep Betty from spending so much time with Archie, Veronica joins the squad, too… and it isn’t long before she inadvertently unleashes a vicious computer virus!  Co-starring computer gurus Dilton and Veronica’s cousin, Marcy, this “geek-tacular” issue also features a “techie” quiz, internet tips, geek-chic fashions, and more!

    JUGHEAD #194
    “Unfair Fair”: Reluctantly attending the Job Fair at his parents’ insistence, Jughead has a plan: he’ll scare away potential employers with tall tales about jobs he’s botched.  Will his ruse succeed, or will Jughead’s fears of gainful employment become a reality?
    “A Rude Awakening”: Hot Dog tries everything he can to wake Jughead up for the grand opening of the “Rise and Shine” bakery. But which is stronger: Jughead’s desire for sleep, or his massive appetite?
