Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #148

Apr 1968 · Archie · 0.12 USD
“Brash Splash”

In "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.

The gang goes to a drive-in movie, Veronica in Archie's car and Betty in Reggie's. Veronica doesn't want to stay in Archie's car because she'll freeze in the cold weather. But she doesn't want to go to Reggie's car because then Betty will move in on Archie.
