This is Jeff Schultz and Rosario “Tito” Peña‘s variant cover for Betty & Veronica #269, in which the pair do something new for Archie Comics: They go through “the typical day of a Riverdale teen” in real time! I’m sure their adventures are more interesting than mine when I was a teenager, though to be fair that’s not a particularly high bar. But I don’t know… bus rides to weekend debate tournaments could be pret-ty raucous. You know what I mean, high school debate team members. You know.

The regular cover and more information on the issue are behind the jump.
