Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #148
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Brash Splash," the gang hits the drive-in movie scene in 1968, with Veronica torn between staying in Archie’s chilly car or joining Betty in Reggie’s—neither choice quite right, and both full of unspoken tension. Written by Dick Malmgren and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style, Rudy Lapick’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s crisp lettering, this issue captures the classic charm of Archie’s world with a touch of playful drama. The cover by Dan DeCarlo and Rudy Lapick perfectly frames the scene’s lighthearted yet charged atmosphere.
When Miss Grundy and Mr. Weatherbee both show up to school dressed in wildly outlandish, trendsetting outfits—she in a miniskirt, he in bell bottoms, a paisley shirt, and an afro wig—the students are stunned, and the whole school is thrown into chaos. The story follows the hilarious fallout as the teachers’ bold fashion choices backfire in ways no one expected.
In this 1968 slice of teen life from *Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #148*, the gang heads to a drive-in movie night with a twist: Veronica’s torn between staying in Archie’s car to avoid the cold and not wanting Betty to cozy up to Archie—especially if she hops over to Reggie’s side. The tension is as thick as the winter chill, and the real show is the silent battle of glances and seat positions.
