SNEAK PEEK! Including a complete vintage tale drawn by Dan DeCarlo…

Santa’s coming and now you have a wide range of Archie digests and comics for your stockings. We’ve been previewing the issues over the last few weeks (links below) and now we’ve got one more for you: World of Betty and Veronica Jumbo Comics Digest #21, which features three new stories in addition to the requisite collection of vintage tales.

Dig the issue’s description, a SNEAK PEEK at the first new story, and a complete classic tale illustrated by the great Dan DeCarlo, from 1994’s Betty and Veronica #84.

Ho! Ho! Ho!

WORLD OF BETTY & VERONICA JUMBO COMICS DIGEST #21

THREE BRAND NEW STORIES! First, in “Snow Way!“ when Betty and Veronica make snowmen in front of Veronica’s mansion, Veronica decides to outdo Betty and make a high-fashion snow-woman. Even though it’s done mostly as a joke, it catches the eye of a holiday blogger and goes viral. Suddenly Veronica’s on Fashion TV with a whole runway of fashionable snow-people! But can she keep her cool enough to maintain this level of cold-weather celebrity?

Then, in “Expensive Stuffing,” Betty’s volunteering at the local animal rehabilitation center, when she’s tasked with a very special case—the superhero Captain Flag’s beloved pet eagle is sick! Does Betty have the know-how to bring this special super-powered animal back to health?

And last, Darkling returns in “She’s Goth What It Takes!” The new girl at Riverdale High has turned Archie’s head, but Darla Lang is no ordinary student – she’s got a host of magical powers and otherworldly monsters are hot on her trail. But can Darkling handle these frights without some down-to-earth help?
