Betty Cooper & Veronica Lodge Blog About Archie Andrews' Proposal

— May 29, 2009 — Pop Culture
Egad! Archie just proposed to Veronica! Any fan of Archie Comics knows the confusing love triangle between Archie Andrews, Veronica Lodge and Betty Cooper (with Cheryl Blossom thrown in for good measure every few issues) is critical to the high school cartoon adventure… so now what?

Seven decades after the first Archie Comic was launched, the freckled, check-headed ginger finally got down on one knee and asked the daughter of tycoon Lodge to marry him.

But did Veronica accept Archie’s proposal? You’ll have to check out issue #600, “Archie Marries Veronica Part 1: The Proposal,” when it hits stands in August to find out.

Can’t wait? Check out the official blogs of Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge and Archie Andrews for the inside scoop.
