Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #74
In "The Adorable Snowman," Betty and Veronica clash over a simple question: is it okay to keep money found on the sidewalk? Betty pockets a quarter, while Veronica tosses a five-dollar bill back down—sparking a lively debate about honesty, generosity, and what it really means to do the right thing. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style and Rudy Lapick’s crisp inks, this 1962 classic captures the timeless charm of Riverdale’s two most iconic teens. The cover, by Bob White, perfectly captures their spirited rivalry in a moment of snowy mischief.
