Betty and Me #43

A charming slice of Riverdale life, this 1972 Archie Giant Series entry finds Betty sighing over her "Archiekins" — who, as the cover makes perfectly clear, is sitting alone in the Detention Room. A smirking dark-haired figure looks on approvingly as Betty swoons with hearts floating around her, blissfully unaware that her beau's "class" is of the disciplinary variety. Al Hartley's warm, breezy artwork captures the gentle comedic timing that made Betty and Me such a reliable treat for fans of Archie's Riverdale gang.
