Betty and Veronica: Rock and Roll Reviews
This rocking new issue introduces a new band, Rock Candi and new drummer to Riverdale, Jola Kitt.

I’ll confess I did not realize this until I read the Acknowledgement pages, and since the only 80s movies I’ve seen were Flashdance, and The Breakfast Club, I cannot tell…

A Secret Princess Review
Margaret Stohl and Melissa de La Cruz team up once again for a reimagining of beloved literary characters from Frances Hodgson Burnett’s canon. The choice of pairing Mary Lennox and Sara Crewe is perfect as they are just those two literary characters that you just picture like when one thinks of Wendy Darling, one also…
