Betty and Me #109
In "Ankle Rankle," Betty’s ideal man description sparks a hilarious misunderstanding when the Lodges laugh at her choice—only to realize Archie might be the one she’s describing. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo’s signature charm, Rudy Lapick’s inks, Barry Grossman’s colors, and Bill Yoshida’s crisp lettering, this 1980 classic captures the awkward charm of teenage crushes. Stan Goldberg’s playful cover perfectly sets the tone for the lighthearted chaos within.
