Betty #136
In "The Big Switch," a classic Archie-style twist takes center stage as a simple classroom incident spins into a surprising shift in feelings—Reggie catches Midge when she falls, but by the time the story reaches Moose, the moment has been flipped: Midge’s fall is now seen as her choosing Reggie, leaving Moose in the lurch. Written by Mike Pellowski and brought to life with Stan Goldberg’s signature art and John Lowe’s crisp inks, this 2004 issue captures the playful drama of high school romance with a clever, heartwarming turn. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Bob Smith perfectly captures the moment’s emotional pivot.
In "Story Fury!", Jo finds herself caught in a web of mistaken feelings when Reggie catches Midge after her fall in class—only for the situation to twist into something unexpected, with Midge seemingly drawn to Reggie and leaving Moose behind. The story unfolds with playful tension and shifting dynamics, all in just five pages.
