Archie's passage to India

Yes, that Archie, the goof who is finally (gasp!) proposing to Veronica. The last gasp of cultural imperialism?

The letters thread is now closed.

I give him 6 months...

Then he'll realize he's trapped in a loveless marriage and start having an affair with Betty.

Now, THAT'S an Archie comic!

Idiot?

An idiot for choosing Veronica over Betty? At least one prominent comics blogger thinks not: http://mightygodking.com/index.php/2009/06/03/it-puts-the-lotion-on-its-skin/

Veronica?

*tsk* it will never last.

I'm not sure I saw anything horribly stereotypical in this plot-line.

I'm confused by the column, except for Archie's decision.

Of COURSE he chose Veronica - she's got the cash, and he's got a pre-nup. He is also the kind of guy who needs a little instruction, and Veronica and her father are there to give it to him.

Why should Archie chose anything but the path of least reisistance?
