Via the Associated Press:
When comic book store owner Dave Luebke heard that after 67 years, the carrot-topped everyman of the comic world, Archie, was proposing to va-va-voomy rich girl Veronica instead of girl-next-door Betty, he decided to protest by selling his copy of the series’ rare first issue.
Luebke’s Archie Comics No. 1 is expected to sell for around $30,000 when Dallas’ Heritage Auction Galleries offers it Friday.
“Betty is it. Not Veronica,” said Luebke, whose Richmond, Va., store has more than 1 million comics in stock. “This is serious.”
Oh, BS. Nobody gives a rat’s ass who Archie Andrews marries. This guy wants to get paid. And now he has the AP is giving him some free publicity.
And I’d marry Veronica, too. Then I’d take some of that Lodge money to set Betty up in an apartment on the other side of Riverdale. Know what I’m sayin’?
