A look at the cover of Archie #600, which ships August 12:
Oh, Archie, Archie, Archie. You bonehead.
Don’t you realize Betty has always been the one for you! Little Miss Rich Girl will never make you happy.
And, uh, why are you proposing in the jewelry store?

It goes without saying that Veronica knows how to toss a mean salad.
I liked Laura Hudson’s piece on the comics alliance blog:

particularly the line:
“While some men want a woman to be their rock, their foundation, others would prefer their lady to be a boulder that must forever be pushed up an unconquerable incline.”
Later in life Archie will realize he should have married the sweet blonde, and kept banging the crazy brunette on the side.
And, why is Jughead so distraught?
…on second thought, I don’t want to know.
@tk It’s because Jughead is the king of queen Archie’s world.
@ me: Oh whoops, Archie-as-Sisyphus was by guest blogger Brendan McGuirk. Fine print!
BRUNETTES WITH MONEY RULE THE WORLD.
What?
Veronica was hotter, and equally annoying. I never thought he’d end up with her though.
Dude Archie, why buy the cow when we know you’re already getting that sweet sweet milk?
You are right? You haven’t pursued this girl for 60 years without getting any nookie have you?
Isn’t it obvious? She is just helping him PICK OUT the ring, which is really for Betty! What a twist!
Are you a Heather?
Yes.
