My Top 20 Archie Women For International Women’s Day
20. Ms. Beazley
She is very funny
19. Polly Cooper
She gives me lesbian vibes
18. January McAndrews
I have, admittedly, not read a lot of her but I luv her
17. Della
Fucking icon
16. Ms. Grundy
Another one I feel bad for putting low. But there are others I simply like more
15. Ethel Muggs
She is very cute and also very funny
14. Ginger Lopez
RAHHHHHHH I love her when she’s allowed to have her own personality rather than being Cheryl 2.0
13. Nancy Woods
Awwwwww my baby <3 She looks so cute here <3
12. Alexandra Cabot
She used to annoy me a lil bit but she’s grown on me a lot
11. Toni Topaz
She’s that one post abt how being hungry makes you bisexual
10. Midge Klump
No you don’t understand I literally love her so much. I hope her ugly boyfriend dies
9. Josie McCoy
Thinks Caesar could’ve gone farther/ref
8. Melody Valentine
One of my fave examples of the bimbo trope. AND she’s bisexual. She’s amazing
7. Zelda Spellman and 6. Hilda Spellman
I struggled to find separate images of them
5. Valerie Smith
I do NOT play abt her and I completely understand why Archie was willing to dump both his girlfriends for her
4. Cheryl Blossom
Cherry Blossom <333 My favorite mean lesbian <333
3. Veronica Lodge
It feels kinda criminal not having her and Betty back to back but my top 3 are a little bit interchangeable so. Idk man she’s one of The Characters ever created. Read Vampironica rn
2. Sabrina Spellman
Would have taken the top spot if I hadn’t developed an abrupt attachment to Miss Betty Cooper. I have sm nostalgia for her. She’s literally me
Betty Cooper🌱
Ya’ll already knew she’d be in first place. She may be Archie’s second choice but she will always be my first. The REAL main character, the people’s princess. I would sell my soul for her
Anyways. All of these ladies mean a lot to me and there are others I probably would have included if this was a longer list. To me the women have always been the main appeal of Archie Comics, I love how diverse and interesting they are despite the simplistic nature of the series. There’s sm you can do with all of them writing-wise. It’s also been refreshing to be part of a fandom where the female characters and wlw ships get the most focus despite it being a split cast. I love girls. That’s all, okay bye
