Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #188
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Command Performance," Archie and Jughead’s sudden disinterest in Betty and Ethel sparks an unexpected turn when the girls form a phone-based support group—so much so that the boys can’t get a word in edgewise when they finally try to reach out. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—pencils by Dan DeCarlo, inks by Jim DeCarlo, and letters by Bill Yoshida—this 1971 classic captures the timeless charm of Riverdale’s teens in a playful, relatable twist on friendship and miscommunication. The cover by Dan DeCarlo perfectly captures the lighthearted tension of the moment.
In "Busy Busy," Archie and Jughead’s usual distraction leaves Betty and Ethel fed up, prompting the two to start a phone-a-friend support group. As their calls keep the boys from getting through, the girls’ new routine takes on a life of its own—leaving the guys wondering what’s really going on.
