SUMMARY:
Published by Archie Comics for June 2018, it’s a quartet of glossy five-page reprints spoofing Hollywood movies. The stories are:
- “
QuietRiot on the Set:” Accompanying Hiram Lodge on his visit to Hollywood’s Global Studios, Betty & Veronica visit The Pirates of Cancun film set. Veronica inadvertently sets a series of catastrophes, as she tries getting closer to the action.
- “Movie Mix-Up:” Double-booked for Friday night movie dates, the girls scheme to two-time their dates and an unsuspecting Archie.
- “Extra Disastrous:” Landing gigs as extras for a big-budget disaster film filming in Riverdale, the girls bungle their way into a less-than-stellar movie cameo.
- “An Unliving Doll:” Spoofing Child’s Play, Veronica & Betty are alone at Lodge Mansion on a dark and stormy night. Veronica’s imagination suggests that her childhood doll, ‘Ms. Peevy,’ is on the loose stalking them.
REVIEW:
For Betty & Veronica fans, it’s a super-fast read. With its timeless look, Dan Parent’s vibrant artwork is wonderful. Still, at a skimpy twenty pages, more stories would have been appreciated.
ADDITIONAL CONTENT:
None.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 6 Stars
