Courtesy of Archie Comics, we’re delighted to present a preview of a new story from World of Betty & Veronica Jumbo Comics Digest #36, which arrives in stores Oct. 23. It features the entire Archie gang as they head to the racetrack to see former Riverdale resident and current racing superstar Daisy Thunder.
Daisy Thunder made her debut earlier this year in the pages of Archie & Friends: Hot Rod Racing. She’s a Southside Serpent who knew Archie and the gang back when they were kids. Even though she’s gone on to become a famous race car driver, she still remembers all her friends — well, almost all her friends.
The new story is written by Craig Boldman, with artwork by Bill Galvan, colors by Glenn Whitmore and letters by Jack Morelli. Check out the preview below, along with a classic Archie story from the digest by Frank Doyle and Dan DeCarlo.
