Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #326

A sunny beach rivalry takes center stage on Dan DeCarlo's cover for this 1983 installment of Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica — Betty lounges with her giant boombox, confident it'll draw all the boys, while Veronica delivers the punchline by having Smithers wheel out a full-sized jukebox right onto the sand. The cover's two-panel strip format captures the playful one-upmanship between the girls perfectly, with Archie and Jughead caught hilariously in the middle of it all. Writer Frank Doyle and artist Dan DeCarlo Jr. bring their signature warmth to the interior story "Tale of Woe," making this a thoroughly enjoyable slice of Riverdale summer fun.
