“Nice Try”

In "Nice Try," Betty and Veronica ditch the summer grind for a daring hike to a high-altitude mountain peak where snow still lingers—just to beat the heat. Written by Kathleen Webb and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s classic art and Henry Scarpelli’s crisp inks, this 1999 adventure captures the girls’ playful rivalry and the timeless charm of Riverdale’s summer days. The cover, also by Dan DeCarlo and Henry Scarpelli, perfectly captures the scene’s breezy, sun-dappled energy.
