Sometimes I use my iPad but since I misplaced my charger I cannot for a while.

That doesn't sound good. What do you do when the battery totally dies if you have no charger? Is that just the end of it?

That's why micro USB is now a standard for charging devices. But you can (for now) buy overpriced proprietary chargers from Apple 
Personally I prefer the desktop to reply, but I frequently use a tablet to read.

Didn't they just have one of those ...

Do you have a list of these other sixteen variants? Are you counting signed editions separately?

I don't count signed or sketch covers separately:

• Adam Hughes SDCC Exclusive
• Mike Federali — Tidewater Comicon Exclusive
• J.Scott Campbell Exclusive ... doesn't seem to be for anyone though ...
• Andrew Pepoy — New England Comics Exclusive
• ... Comix Connection ... everyone looks wasted on something〔apparently a self portrait〕 ...
• Dan Schoening — Curious Comics ... nice one
• Jenny Frison — Dynamic Forces ... also nice
• Des Taylor — Flying Colors Comics
• Annie Wu — Fried Pie Comics
• Jay P. Fosgitt — Comic City
• Michael "Locoduck" Duron — M-M Comics
• Dave Dorman — M-M Comics ... forms a join cover with his Archie #1 Variant!
• Pop Mhan — Comics and Gaming ... Manga-ish
• Sam Payne — Rick's Comic City
• Marco D'Alfonso — Stadium Comics ... Hulk 181 tribute w/Betty as the Hulk〔don't ask〕
• Stan Sakai — Atlantis Fantasyworld

Related trivia:  while it's not close to a record, there appear to be (excluding the blank) 40 variant covers for B&V  — 24 specifically from ACP and the rest retailer and convention exclusives (including another Adam Hughes, an Andrew Pepoy. J.Scott Campbell and more).

Is this the first time we are seeing Ethel in the reboots? I don't believe I saw her in the Archie reboot. And I don't know about the Jughead issues cause I haven't read those. I am actually glad the guy drawing B&V didn't beautify her, at least in this page she seems average looking.

she's in a similar crowd scene in a two page spread in Archie #3

^ Oh, yeah. That's right. He won't be a blond, though? That's weird.

Ah well, that is Josie next to him, right?

Riverdale TV show (that will not be a hit and will get cancelled soon  *crosses fingers*) poster by Francesco Francavilla




The guy below Betty, who is he supposed to be?

Off-hand I'd guess Kevin ?

Sabrina #6 tomorrow

The exact Lodge backstory never seems set in more than mud ... the Mrs.Lodge I recall from way back rarely appeared, but was over-weight, top-heavy carrying opera glasses and a snobby air ... and would have been mistaken for Ron's grandmother if not otherwise identified ...

Jughead does — who knows for B&V ... we'll see when it comes out ...

I recently got a couple more recent digests at the same area Safeway I mentioned I had been meaning to write about them but I don't have them mear me now  .
  However the odd thing was that in one digest TWO DIFFERENT STORIES ! referred to the concept of " going steady " - and they weren't Fifties/early Sixties stories - Really , who talks about " going steady " anymore ?Or since thelate Sixties , iF that ? - but , one was the , I believe , second part of that booklength first Archie-Valerie story from a few years ago in which the Lodges at the movies see Archarie and , noting that Archie is not G. S. w/Betty or Ronnie , decode not to get involved .
  Another one was likely a 00s Satn Goldberg Betty tory from the old 32-page title too it had Bett thinking " Archie is finally going to ask me to  go steady ! " !
  GOING STEADY  ??

I could see it for the Lodges and their reaction — it's likely what they grew up with, so how they'd think of it ...
 
Betty ...  Justifiable as a nostalgic romantic, who'd love to be considered in that sort of relationship by the boy she's so (fairly literally) crazy about

Note that while YOU'VE started threads about Archie being an a-hole or whatever, I've never started a thread about Veronica that encourages people to heap scorn on her.

That's because there already was/is a Worst of Veronica thread, and pretty much a negative thread for every character. Why should Archie be left out of the fun? 

Archie certainly deserves it as much or more than the rest ...

Nurse sharks (and others) are quite large with standard shark-appearance, but are essentially harmless ...

QuoteYeah Betty gets along well with almost all the girls so I would want them to be there, same for her parents and Polly since her family is important to her. I don't remember Chloe and Adam but some rivalry for Betty and her boyfriends would be good.

Chloe Mancuso was one of the big batch of "new kids" (along with Sayid actually) and took over as editor of the Riverdale High student paper when Betty stepped down to focus on her writing.
Adam Chisolm was a second love interest for her from the late '90s and quite regular for a while — seeing everything in her that Archie ignored. He and Archie were quite competitive about it, and not in a B&V friendly way, but then they just forgot about him it seems ...
