Betty and Me #151
In "The Ideal Date," Archie’s plans to take Veronica to a big concert hit a snag when he sees how popular Betty has become at her hardware store job—so he swaps his date and asks her instead. Written by George Gladir and brought to life with Dan DeCarlo Jr.’s art, Jim DeCarlo’s inks, and Barry Grossman’s colors, this 1986 issue captures the classic Archie charm with a sweet twist. The cover by Dan DeCarlo perfectly captures the moment’s nervous energy.
