Archie's Girls, Betty and Veronica Annual #6

In "Poor Little Rich Girl," Veronica’s scheme takes a turn when she convinces Archie to ask Betty out on a pity date—only to find the school moves the Fall Festival dance to the same night. With her word on the line, Veronica tries to exploit Betty’s trusting nature, claiming she’s too ill to keep the date. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo with inks by Rudy Lapick and letters by Vincent DeCarlo, this 1958 annual captures the classic teenage drama of the era, all on a 25-cent cover by Harry Lucey and Terry Szenics.
