Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #285
In "Battle Birds," Betty and Veronica find themselves in a playful rivalry when they accidentally wear identical blouses to school, leading to a clever plan to avoid confusion by alternating their coats throughout the day. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature style—pencils and inks by Dan DeCarlo, colors by Barry Grossman—this 1979 issue captures the classic charm of the series, with Dan DeCarlo also handling the cover art.
