Product Description: Cherish the innocence of summer days gone by with this collection of the earliest stories from the Betty & Veronica Summer Fun editions of the Archie Giant Series! Whether chasing after hunky lifeguards, modeling the latest swimwear, or putting up with Archie and Reggie's goofy rivalry for their affections, Betty and Veronica are truly the queens of Riverdale Beach!
Reprints some of the best Silver Age stories from the first few years of Betty & Veronica Summer Fun.
Soon after Betty and Veronica's first appearances within the pages of Pep Comics #22 and Pep Comics #26, respectively, Archie Andrew's gal pals quickly became just as popular with readers as old freckle-face himself, and soon starred in solo stories that ran in Pep, and ultimately, other Archie Comics titles. By 1950, they co-starred in their own comic book title. Their enormous fan appeal continues to grow today with readers of all-ages.
Long beloved and cherished by collectors, copies of the original comics featured in this volume fetch handsome sums from vintage comic book dealers.
Features great summer camp "survival" material for parents to send to their kids.
pleased as pie ^ The book arrived in a timely manner. I couldn't find it in a regular book store so it was very useful.
I assume it is good. ^ Well, first of all! I did not buy the book for me. I bought it for my friend grand-daughter! And I am sure she loves it! Thank you, Ms. N. Sattaur
Classic "Archie Comics" hijinks ^ This is another great set reprinting classic strips from the glory years of "Archie Comics." This book collects a bunch of stories from the book "Betty & Veronica Summer Fun", which debuted in the early 1960s. This anthology sticks to the book's early years which were arguably one of the greatest periods for Archie art. The stories are typical battle-of-the-sexes material, but oh, what a great battle it is when these two gals are around! This is one of the most lighthearted and effervescent "Archie" reprint books to date. Highly recommended! (Joe Sixpack, ReadThatAgain book reviews)
Nice early Christmas present ^ I loved this book! I was looking forward to reading it, since I first saw it advertised in the Archie comics! My god child loved it too, so I got her a copy for Christmas! She enjoyed it as well! I highly recommend it for fans of Archie's girls! Jen
Nice blast from the past ^ Archie comics have always been one of the more pure fun comics still around. It's nice to view some samples from the 1960's, especially of the vivacious Betty and Veronica. The art is clean and crisp and brought up to specs of newer comics and as usual, always fun to read.
