Finally
the lipstick incident has been revealed, and what an incident it was! Mark Waid
did a fantastic job of making the audience see the incident from both Archie
and Betty’s perspectives. This issue does not shy away from difficult issues
for both Betty and Archie, whether it’s holding on to the past for Archie or
Betty’s desire to be more than just a tomboy. The art from Annie Wu is amazing.
From the lighting in the first panel to Betty’s bright red lips, the colors are
vibrant, bright, and consistent. This issue really makes the reader feel like a
third wheel on Archie and Betty’s dates, whether it’s at the water tower, the
playground, or the movie theater. This issue really makes the audience feel
their happiness, joy, and how uncomfortable they were by the end of their last
date. Also, we finally get the big reveal of Reggie! I cannot recommend this
series enough. Stop reading this review right now and go read Archie number one
through four!
