Archie Comics’ new Betty & Veronica series ships July 20, with a choice of 25 variant covers, including this one by me! (I think the order date for this title is coming up, so ask your retailer to order you a copy ASAP if you want to be sure to get one in July.)

I didn’t capture a video of the making of this cover, but I was able to put together a process GIF to show off some of the layers of work that went into this piece.

Some of the coloring was done in Photoshop, but the lion’s share of the work in this cover was in Manga Studio 5EX (now called Clip Studio Paint).
