Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #239
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Make Believe," Veronica takes matters into her own hands when Archie and the gang skip her pool party to return to the old swimmin' hole. Determined to make her backyard more appealing, she sets out to upgrade her pool—though her plans might be a little more elaborate than expected. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo, this 1975 classic captures the charm and humor of Riverdale with a touch of whimsy, all capped off by DeCarlo’s iconic cover.
In "Make Believe," the kids at Riverdale High dive into a classroom project where they imagine wildly impossible scenarios—Betty turning down Archie, Jughead resisting food—each moment a playful twist on what could never be. Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story captures the lighthearted, imaginative spirit of teenage life in 1975.
When the boys skip swimming at Veronica’s pool to head back to the "ol' swimmin' hole," she’s determined to make her own pool more appealing—especially since she’s not fond of frogs and weeds. But her plans to upgrade the space take an unexpected turn when Jo shows up with a surprising idea.
