Archie Comics sent Major Spoilers a sneak peek of Archie #625, Archie & Friends Double Digest #9, and Betty #194.
ARCHIE #625
Sometimes an emotional teenager has her reasons. In ‘Send In The Clowns,’ Betty is concerned for her classmate, Shrill and wants to help after her break up with Sayid. Betty soon finds that there is more to Shirll’s behavior than a broken heart. Her little sister needs cancer treatment and only Ronald McDonald House can help her. It doesn’t take much to persuade Veronica to help pay for the treatment and the entire gang are on a plane to pitch in for their new friend and her family.

“HOW SWEET IT WAS”
All of Betty’s dreams come true when Archie asks her to be his date at the dance. But she’s forced to wake up when she can’t afford to buy a new dress. Never one to sulk, Betty gets a job and with Archie at her side. She may not dance the night away, but she still gets Archie in the hilarious conclusion. In the second feature, KATY KEENE, Skipper Mason goes on a monkey chase and gets more than he bargained for. LIL JINX makes an appearance in “SOUNDS FISHY,” and Archie goes classic in “ERRANT BOY” FROM 1957. Finally, everyone’s favorite witch shows up in SABRINA “STRANGE LOVE.”
