The only thing I appreciated about this read was the art - which is what caught me in the first place. I'm not a big remake person. Almost always the original is better so I just don't bother, and I wish I had followed my own logic. The story is empty, like someone else said, it simply seems like a desire to end betty and ronnie's friendship or destroy Riverdale. There's nothing appealing, no character development and they made betty so powerless it's just pathetic. I haven't read comics in years and this discouraged me from reading anymore.

Betty is spiraling out of control in her attempt to help save Pop’s.

Ronnie is being a total b**** about this whole thing and raising money for non existent charities just so Betty’s money raising ideas fail. Because. She. Can.

I still enjoyed the art in this issue and Betty being driven to be an angry little blonde ball of stress.

Me gustan mucho estos cómics. Y el arte en este número me pareció mejor que el anterior. Un rato divertido. Also, hipsters.

I enjoy the art here more than I do the Archie comics. The story got a little stronger, but it falls out of sync with the Archie timeline, which is disappointing, because if you just take the new stories no one believes Betty and Veronica as besties and are surprised by them fighting. However, the story is still strong and the girls have a great dynamic, which is why they were always better characters than the male they were in love with.

I believe the cover stating *Betty Vs. Veronica* was correct about this one. B&V are no longer the "Archie Love Triangle" friends we've all come to know and love. Now, they are on opposite sides against one another. Betty's trying to save Pop's, and Veronica wants it turned into a coffee shop.

I'm just not really all that impressed with this series. I like them much better as friends.
It feels like some of these newer Archie Comics series were just created to tear Riverdale apart.

Enjoying this series so far, though I'm quite annoyed that both the Archie (2015) and Betty and Veronica (2016) series is about hating each other, I much prefer them being best friends which is one of the reasons I like Betty and Veronica not them turning on each other, other then that, I really like the art because its a lot different from other Archie books.
