“Cheer Chore”

The Miss Riverdale Beauty Contest takes center stage on Dan DeCarlo's cover for this January 1978 issue, with Veronica — sash and all — delivering the wonderfully self-contradictory line "Actually I'm quite modest… I don't think I'm nearly as beautiful as I really am!" while a wide-eyed Betty looks on in disbelief beside her. A crowd of onlookers and a flustered contest official round out a scene that captures the friendly rivalry between Riverdale's two most competitive best friends at its most delightfully absurd.
