Betty and Veronica #223
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Working Hand in Glove," Archie’s chapped lips spark an unexpectedly tender moment when Betty shares her lip balm with him—her gesture charged with quiet intimacy that leaves Veronica visibly unsettled. Written by Kathleen Webb and brought to life with expressive art by Jeff Shultz, inks by Al Milgrom, and vibrant colors by Barry Grossman, this 2007 issue captures a small, sweet moment of connection amid the usual high school drama. The cover, also by Jeff Shultz and Al Milgrom, perfectly frames the scene’s delicate tension.
In "Offering Lip Service," Archie’s chapped lips spark an unexpectedly intimate moment when Betty shares her lip balm with him—close enough to make Veronica eye-roll with quiet irritation. The brief, awkward exchange unfolds with the kind of playful tension that only Riverdale’s teen trio can deliver.
