Betty and Me #105

A sunny beach day turns into a love-triangle standoff in this 1979 installment of Betty and Me. The cover by Dan DeCarlo and Jim DeCarlo puts Archie and Betty side by side in their sand castle fortress, trading quips about a "fiery dragon" — while a very real Veronica, looking anything but amused, storms across the sand toward them in a black swimsuit. It's a perfectly breezy snapshot of Riverdale's eternal romantic tension, rendered with the warm, clean linework that makes this series such an easy favorite.
