"Lost in Transition": It’s a case of
culture shock when Betty, Veronica, and Mr. Lodge accidentally
become separated on a trip to Japan! Luckily the kindness of strangers saves
the day, as Veronica ends up with a
trendy teen who loves to shop,
and Betty stays with a down-to-earth family in a beautiful farmhouse.

the US? SCRIPT: Kathleen Webb. ART: Jeff Shultz. PLUS: New

SABRINA THE TEENAGE WITCH #77
"Deep Sea Secret": There’s nothing like
a Charm School field trip—especially to an underwater city filled
with interesting mer-people! Falling away from the group, Sabrina,
Shinji and Llandra find a cave filled with ancient cave
paintings. Narayan, a mer-man who wants to be an
underwater
archeologist one day, explains that one of the paintings prophecies
a time when the mana tree will die and the waters will be teeming
with horrible sea monsters! This explains a lot about the recent and
not-so-recent past, and offers a scary glimpse into the future for the trio.
Now more than ever, Shinji implores his friends to re-launch the Four Blades!
But Llandra may be more interested in launching a romance with Narayan...
SCRIPT AND ART: Tania del Rio.
