Little Betty

Little Betty is a childhood version of Betty Cooper appearing in the 'Little Archie' stories, set during Archie and his friends' early elementary-school years in the small town of Riverdale.

Debuting in the sun-dappled pages of The Adventures of Little Archie #43 in 1967, Little Betty is Archie Comics' cherished Silver Age incarnation of everyone's favorite girl-next-door, rendered in the delightful chibi-esque style of that beloved younger-years spin-off. Created by Dexter Taylor, she's spent nearly six decades charming readers across digest after digest — from Archie Comics Digest to Archie's Double Digest Magazine — sharing adventures with Little Veronica, Little Jughead, and the rest of Riverdale's pint-sized crew. With 94 catalog appearances spanning all the way to 2025 and a key issue to her name, Little Betty is proof that some characters capture hearts so completely that no amount of growing up can make fans let go.
