Katy Keene #23

Katy Keene and her rival Gloria are front and center on this vibrant 1987 Archie Romance Series cover, dressed to the nines and trading barbs over the glittering Belgravia Crown Jewel Collection displayed at their feet — tiaras, orbs, and bejeweled regalia rendered with flair by cover artist John Lucas. The tagline promises "International Intrigue & Adventure" in "The Crown Jewel Affair," and with two glamorous models, a shadowy figure lurking in the background, and a table full of priceless gems between them, the setup feels genuinely fun and full of possibilities. It's a charming slice of late-'80s Archie romance with a sophisticated, globe-trotting twist.
