Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica #338
In "Summer Bummer," Veronica’s bold new hairstyle sparks a surprising trend, prompting Betty and Midge to embrace equally unconventional looks—much to Archie and Reggie’s dismay. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo Jr.’s expressive art and Jim DeCarlo’s crisp inks, this 1985 classic captures the playful chaos of teenage style with a touch of timeless Archie charm. The cover by Dan DeCarlo perfectly captures the issue’s whimsical energy.
