Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #274
In "The Buddy System," Veronica and Betty team up on a seemingly innocent plan to get Archie to the Lodge cabin for a birthday fishing trip—except they’ve conveniently left the fishing gear at home. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—pencils and inks by DeCarlo, with coloring by Barry Grossman—this 1978 issue captures the classic charm of Archie’s Girls with a playful twist. The cover, also by DeCarlo, perfectly captures the lighthearted mischief of the moment.
