Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #229
In "Falling Leaves," Betty and Veronica, stunned by a sight they weren't expecting, vow to cut Archie out of their lives—only to secretly plot their way back to his house, hoping to catch him alone. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature charm, this 1975 classic captures the timeless, playful tension of teenage friendship and rivalry. The cover, penciled by DeCarlo and inked by Rudy Lapick, perfectly captures the moment’s delicate mix of drama and humor.
