Betty #114

A sunny beach day sets the scene on this Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith cover, where Archie and Betty are wrapped together in matching red-white-and-blue American flag towels as Betty declares, "You're right, Archie! We belong together!" In the background, a soaking-wet Veronica wrings out her seaweed-tangled hair in a bikini, seemingly unaware of the cozy moment unfolding nearby. Published during Archie's 60th Anniversary in 2002, this issue — with interior art by Goldberg and a story by Kathleen Webb — promises the kind of fun, lighthearted rivalry that makes the Riverdale gang so irresistible.
