Courtesy of Archie Comics, we’re pleased to help you kick off the summer with a preview of a new story from Betty & Veronica Jumbo Comics Digest #315, which comes out June 28.
Writer Ian Flynn and artist Holly G! reunite Archie with Darkling, the mystical superhero from the 1980s who he has had his eye on in the past. Darkling’s not really a fan of the beach, but Archie wants to prove that the beach can be fun. Inker Jim Amash, colorist Glenn Whitmore and letterer Jack Morelli help bring this one to life.
Check out the preview below, along with this issue’s cover by Dan Parent and a complete, classic story starring Sabrina the Teenage Witch by Frank Doyle and Stan Goldberg.
BETTY AND VERONICA JUMBO COMICS DIGEST #315
TWO BRAND NEW STORIES! First, Ethel and new girl Cassie Cloud are teaming up against Betty and Veronica in a beach volleyball contest. But when two cuties on the beach catch their eyes, they have a new mission—hit the ball in their direction to get their attention! But when Ethel’s aim is a little off, chaos ensues!
Then, in “Solar Panic,” Archie’s spending a day on the beach with Darla Lang—aka Darkling! But it’s not all sun in the fun for Darla, who isn’t exactly a fan of sunshine. Can Archie get her to change her mind, or will he get sunburned trying?
