Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #236

In "Needles and Pins," Betty lands two tickets to a concert by the delightfully named "The Funny Named Group"—a band whose name was a last-minute compromise. To avoid a confrontation, Veronica quickly claims Archie’s already committed to a flower show with her, setting up a classic rivalry moment with just the right mix of charm and mischief. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo, with inks by Jim DeCarlo, the issue’s cover by Dan DeCarlo captures the playful tension perfectly.
