Betty and Me #125

Poor Archie has apparently fainted dead away at the restaurant table after seeing the check, while a smug maître d' presents the bill and Betty leans over with a teasing "Was the bill a little high, Archiekins?" — it's a perfectly timed sight gag that captures everything lovable about this long-running series. The cover art by Dan DeCarlo delivers the polished, expressive charm Archie Comics was known for in 1981, with a fancy dining room setting and an older couple looking on in quiet amusement adding just the right background detail. Betty and Me #125 is a fun, lighthearted slice of Riverdale life at its comedic best.
