“Root of the Problem”

Betty Cooper is absolutely living her best gossip moment on this charming 1987 Archie Series cover, caught mid-phone-call in colorful patterned pants and an oversized shirt, reacting with a gleeful "WOW!" to some juicy news about Reggie and Veronica. A green vacuum cleaner sits forgotten nearby, perfectly setting up the diary entry tucked into the corner: "Today I picked up more dirt with my phone than I did with my vacuum!!" Dan DeCarlo's cover art captures Betty's irresistible energy with warmth and wit, making this a delightful entry in the Betty's Diary run.
