Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #247
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Progress Report," Betty and Veronica turn the Lodges' bannister into a high-speed slide, much to the delight of their friends and the fury of Smithers, who retaliates by waxing the rail to an almost unbearable slipperiness. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—penciled by DeCarlo and inked by Jim DeCarlo—this 1976 classic captures the timeless chaos of teenage mischief, with Barry Grossman’s colors and Bill Yoshida’s lettering adding to the playful energy. The cover by Dan DeCarlo perfectly captures the scene’s zany spirit.
In "Progress Report," Jo and her classmates pitch a bizarre lineup of non-electric appliances at a school gym antique sale, proudly touting their eco-friendly, old-school charm. With a mix of deadpan humor and retro flair, the story captures the absurdity of selling relics as the future of sustainability.
In "Stairway to the Stars," Betty and Veronica turn the Lodges' bannister into a high-speed slide by removing the bottom knob—only to face Smithers’ furious response when he catches them, leading to a slippery showdown that turns the house into a chaotic playground.
