Betty and Me #126
In "Negative," Archie’s latest attempt to dodge a date with Betty takes a turn when he tries to bail in favor of Veronica—only to find himself on the receiving end of a clever, unexpected response. Written and drawn by Dick Malmgren, with inks by Jon D'Agostino and colors by Barry Grossman, this 1982 Archie classic captures a moment of playful tension with a touch of classic teen drama. The cover, penciled and inked by Dan DeCarlo, perfectly frames the scene’s mix of mischief and emotion.
