“Spring Brake”

In "Spring Brake," Betty ropes Veronica into tackling the Cooper household spring cleaning—only to find herself outmaneuvered when Veronica rallies Archie and Jughead into the effort, leaving Betty and her friend to take a much-needed break. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—pencils and inks by DeCarlo, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida—this 1996 classic captures the charm and chaos of small-town life, with a cover by Dan DeCarlo and Alison Flood.
