Betty or Veronica?

Wednesday May 20, 2009

This 68-year-old question is slated to finally be answered late this summer with Archie from the Archie comics empire getting married to one of his long time sweethearts. But which one? Mum's the word so far, although part of the story has already been shared via MSNBC and the Archie comic weblog, such as that the story will take place five years after college graduation.

Archie is one of the oldest iconic characters to have not one, but two kinda-sorta-girlfriends. I don't even know what dating term or slang to use to describe Archie's relationship with either Betty or Veronica. Casually dating? Serial monogamy? Polyamory? What would you call their relationship(s)? And who do you think Archie will choose? Girl next door blonde Betty, or raven haired heiress Veronica?
