It's just that I can easily find so many more examples of out-of-context panels for Betty and Jughead.

Not just out-of-context panels. There are plenty of in context panels, stories, and covers for Betty/Jughead. But I guess Betty/Jughead is too easy for us shippers. They are too nice to each other.

That's how I've always felt too. I see Betty and Jug as more of an endgame relationship or as one of those rare platonic (presumably straight) boy/girl relationships. Though I can't imagine things would always be so rosy, since Jughead is a lazy glutton, poor Betty might have to do all the cooking and cleaning. That's why Veronica is a better match, they'd have servants do everything. j/k 

You remind me of a piece of fan art I did  

Yes!    Poor Betty looks so defeated. She's totally having an affair right?

I dunno if she'd have the time to have an affair. She'd probably be cooking 24/7 to keep Jug and his offspring fed.

Her wealthy paramour Reggie can just but take out and Betty can sneak out while the kids are at school and Jughead is napping. I have thought about this. It brings the topic full circle really, an extramarital affair counts as a team up.

It'd be interesting to see Betty have an affair. To see her not being squeaky clean.

Too easy. Just watch Riverdale, I bet she's a dirty little **** in that.

They'll probably have her doing Mr Lodge in Riverdale. :/

If they make here a crazy, dangerous Archie stalker....genius.

I thought that was more Cheryl's thing. I remember someone posted an Archie/Mad Men crossover page where Cheryl was Joan Holloway and Mr. Lodge was Roger Sterling and we all know what those two got up to.


Anyway, here's some panels





I like to think Betty and Reggie planned this

I just love the idea of Betty fooling around with Reggie 

I wonder if they reprint any stories where Reggie is Betty's lackey?  To me, i think in the older stories, they have a Pinky and The Brain-esque partnership where they planned mad schemes to break up Archie and Betty.

What was clueless Archie doing while Betty and Reggie made out? Did he not even hear the kissing sounds? 

"One girl's trash is another girl's treasure." It's funny because it's not unlike Archie's car, which many people comment on as belonging in a junkyard, but which Archie believes has "plenty of good mileage left in this model". Both of them feel like the object of their scavenging may be a little dinged and dented, and a second-hand castoff, but is still salvageable with a little bit of elbow grease, repair and maintenance. That makes Betty and Archie both American Pickers.

There's a moment with Betty and Reggie in the Tania del Rio/Kennedys story "Unlucky Lake Date" only a little less than a page but it's cute. It was in one of the 2015 digests and it's in the Archie Best of 2015 collection of new digest stories.

Technically not a team up but Betty/Reggie nonetheless. 

I remember a story where Betty was Rolling Blading & she was almost hit by this huge truck. Reggie ran into the street. He saved her. His sweater was ripped. And few days later Betty made him a sweater to replace his rip one. He asked her to go the movies. So they as actually started to date but they were not sure if was true love. Archie & Veronica were jealous & actually missed them. In the end Reggie did what nice person would do & it proved he actually had a heart.
