“Energy Crisis”

The slopes are the setting for some good-natured rivalry in this 1980 entry from Archie Comics Group, with Betty and Veronica hitting the ski hills alongside Archie — and apparently Betty's choice of outfit is generating as much commentary as her skiing form. Dan DeCarlo and Jim DeCarlo's cover captures the fun perfectly: Betty charges forward in her red sweater and blue ski pants while Veronica, sharp in yellow, and a goggle-wearing Archie in green trade remarks about where exactly Betty found that outfit. With a story titled "Energy Crisis" waiting inside, this issue promises the kind of warm, witty Riverdale humor that made this series such a pleasure throughout its run.
