Carrot-top marries Brinjal-head ;)

Quite a shocker, though!

I always thought blondes were just picturised as dumb — seems they are pretty unlucky too! :D Poor thing…after a 67-year-long wait, she gets ditched!

Guess some guys love being strung from the little finger of the girl. ;) Or maybe it was the money…it being recession and all. US being the worst hit, am sure he was actually being sensible for once. Why else would Archie marry Veronica? Betty was always the better one — sugar and spice and all things nice.

Now, wonder if it’s just a teaser…to bring people back into the lives of Archie and his gang.

I remember how crazy I was about the whole Archie business. I remember telling my mom that someday I’ll make lots of money, babysitting someone’s kid. I loved ‘chocolate sundaes’ just because the gang always had them at Pops’. But I never had them for real until years later :D

I used to compare most girls between Veronica and Betty: and always ended up having more veronicas–because none of my friends/acquaintances knitted sweaters or cooked surprise dinners or baby-sat for a couple in the next street :D

‘You’re worse than Reggie” or “Moose is more intelligent” were oft quoted phrases to male classmates. Some of them wondered if these were new abuses :D (Like the guy who thought toching a girl makes him pregnant ;) )

...but looks like he finally did decide! :D

I longed to eat hamburgers the way Jughead did. Finally, when the first pizza-hamburger shop opened in Trivandrum, I rushed to get one for myself. Sadly, I realised it didn’t fit into my mouth! Well, after all these years, I still can’t manage to eat one without messing up my face, dress and my immediate surroundings! :D

I always thought Midge was a beauty! The way Moose hovers around her like this protective shield was one of the sweetest things. The one funniest thing I remember about Archie n Moose is when Moose decided to punch Archie and he says “Count till 10 before you hit me, Moose.” At the count of monte cristo 7, Moose gets stuck — and Archie escapes ;)

And of course, Big Ethel! I always thought a certain friend of my best friend looked exactly like Big Ethel. And we both used to laugh our guts out whenever we see either Big Ethel or Lekha. :D

What will Reggie do now? He always had a thing for the brunette. Mr Lodge must have had a siezure when he heard the news! Or maybe he’s dead — he was quite old then itself :D Or, maybe he died when he heard the news! He despised the ‘boy’ so much!

And am sure Jughead must be pissed: he never quite liked Veronica. Well, he never quite liked any female other than female-hamburgers, if there were any…but between these two, am sure he’d have preferred his best friend kneeling down in front of Betty. ;)

Waiting to grab the first issue of the latest season in August! :D

    As reema mentions, archie has just proposed.. this gimmick was done i think in 1990’s and ultimately archie chose cherry blossom over betty and ronie.. so who knows this time some other thing would come up. And it should… not point in reading archies if its decided whom archie preferes ;) ;)

    Ya, even I never liked Veronica ! But isnt her character very similar to Rachel Greene? :D

  8. Friday, June 5, 2009 at 5:28 pm

    I just love Jughead :)

    Supposedly it’s going to be Veronice… Wish it was Betty!!!

    I love Archies, always will i guess.. ya, this teaser thing is just funny… wonder what will happen.. i like Betty anyday over Veronica….!!

    Ahem, Vimmmuuu- hows Ronnie like Rachel? except that she comes from a rich background!!! :D

  10. Tuesday, June 9, 2009 at 4:56 am

    Aha! Its a nice teaser I must say… I think he’ll leave Betty heart broken again…! And will also ditch Ronnie!

  11. Tuesday, June 16, 2009 at 10:20 am

    I don’t think he’ll choose either :D
    Anyway, have fun reading… ! ;)

    look at it this way…. finally Betty can move onto a guy who really deserves her and appreciates her, instead of wasting her attention on someone who’s not worth it!

  13. Thursday, July 9, 2009 at 5:03 pm

    Whoa!! He marries her?? Damn! Now there’s no fun in reading the comics!! Damn! Damn! Damn!
