Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #243
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Eyes Have It," Betty shares her dream fiancé with the Lodges—only to be met with bewildered laughter when her description oddly matches Archie, despite the fact that it doesn’t. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—pencils and inks by DeCarlo himself, with lettering by Bill Yoshida—this 1976 classic captures the charm and humor of Archie’s small-town romance with a twist that’s as clever as it is quietly mischievous.
In "My Ideal," Betty shares her dream of the perfect husband with the Lodges, describing a man who’s kind, thoughtful, and utterly unlike Archie—only to be met with their amused confusion when she insists her ideal matches him exactly. Written with a wink and drawn in the classic Archie style, the story plays on the timeless charm of misdirected affection and the quiet humor of teenage daydreams.
In "The Advertising Game," Betty and Veronica both hope Archie will ask them to the big dance, leading Veronica to take matters into her own hands with a town-wide ad campaign. As flyers and signs pop up everywhere, the competition heats up in the most unexpected way.
