World of Betty & Veronica Jumbo Comics Digest #17 is, as always, all about the love between Bets and Ronnie. That bond is often tested by outside forces, but they always manage to reunite in the name of friendship.
In this month’s edition of the girls’ ongoing book, Betty and Veronica embark on a Riverdale-wide scavenger hunt together to mark Best Friend’s Day — and be one of 10 teams to win a $100 gift certificate to Pop’s. There’s also another new Jake Chang tale, in which Jake’s trip to the Riverdale BookExpo goes sideways when the Bookworm rears their ugly head. Can Betty and Veronica help him out?
We have a two-page preview of both “Best Friend’s Day” and “Book Smart” below. “Best Friend’s Day” has got a story by Tee Franklin, pencils by Dan Parent, inks by Bob Smith, colors by Glenn Whitmore, and letters by Jack Morelli. “Book Smart” features a story by David Gallaher, pencils by Bill Galvan, inks by Ben Galvan, colors by Glenn Whitmore, and letters by Jack Morelli. Also included is the full story “SSSSH,” a silent story featuring a very bad day for Betty, written by Frank Doyle, with pencils by Dan DeCarlo, inks by Rudy Lapick, and letters by Bill Yoshida.
World of Betty & Veronica Jumbo Comics Digest #17 is set to street on July 27, 2022.
