Archie chooses Veronica after 67 years

(TM & 2009 Archie Comic Publications, Inc)

After 67 years Archie Andrews of the famous Archie comics has popped the question. Yes, the love triangle between Archie, Betty and Veronica has finally come to an end. Archie has chosen Veronica.

The storyline will run through six or more issues of the comic book. The first in the series comes out this Wednesday.

For 67 years Archie has remained a goofy 17 year old who has the life of a suburban teen.

Victor Gorelick, editor in chief of the Archie comic admits that , "He's not a Superman. He's not a Batman. He doesn't have all these powers. He just has the power of being able to have people like him."

He reminds audiences that even though Veronica accepts Archie's proposal in this week's issue, the rest of the series will follow. He says he's aware that most would like to see Betty and Archie together.

"In spite of the fact that he's getting engaged to Veronica, everybody wanted it to be Betty. It's a long story. That's all I can tell you!"

Despite the fact that I haven't read Archie comics since I was a child, I will say that I too am rooting for Betty and Archie. Veronica was a snob.

Well better yet. I actually wish Betty would leave Archie behind. Co-dependent relationship for sure!
