Betty and Me #62

The two-panel cover of Betty and Me #62 perfectly captures the playful spirit Archie Comics delivered in December 1974 — in the top panel, Betty leans in for a kiss with Archie on the living room couch while a TV announcer calls for an "instant replay on that last touchdown," and the bottom panel delivers the punchline as Betty cheekily asks for an instant replay on "that last kiss" instead. Up above the logo, two small figures spin hula hoops in a nod to the interior story "Hoop-De-Doo." It's a warm, funny slice of teen romance that shows exactly why this series had such an easy, enduring charm.
