About this Collection

This collection from the Archie & Friends All-Stars line brings together the classic 'Love Showdown' storyline, where Archie Andrews finds himself caught between Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge in a high-stakes battle for his affections. The volume also features appearances by Jughead Jones, Hal Cooper, Smithers, and a cameo from rock legend Alice Cooper, adding to the fun and chaos of this iconic Archie love triangle tale.

In "Love Showdown, Part 1 Chapter 1," Archie and friends are invited to the Lodges’ ski lodge by Veronica, who hopes to drive a wedge between Archie and Cheryl. With a little help from Jughead’s unexpected move—introducing Jason Blossom, Cheryl’s brother and Betty’s admirer—the weekend quickly heats up, setting off a chain of reactions no one saw coming. Written and drawn by Dan Parent, with inks by Mike Esposito, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, the issue features a cover by Dan DeCarlo and Henry Scarpelli.
