October 12, 2020 by Brigid Alverson   Leave a Comment

Happy Monday! It’s been a while since we have run any Archie previews, but they are once more including original stories in each digest, so we today have a preview of Betty and Veronica Best Friends Jumbo Comics Digest #285. Specifically, we have a look at the Halloween-themed lead story by Dan Parent and a full classic story by Archie masters George Gladir and Dan DeCarlo. The digest goes on sale on Wednesday. Enjoy!
