Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #197

This 1972 entry in the long-running Archie Series finds Betty and Veronica facing a delightfully relatable dilemma — the cover asks it right out loud: "What should we put on first, Ronnie, clothes or calories?" The two girls are shown in a charmingly conceived combination boutique and ice cream parlor, chatting with a cheerful soda-jerk attendant while a clothing rack, belts, and boots displays fill the background. Dan DeCarlo's cover art captures the breezy, fashion-forward spirit of early '70s Riverdale with that signature warmth that made this series such a pleasure.
