Toronto: And the age-old love triangle of Archie comics has finally come to an end, after Riverdale's Archie Andrews has picked the Veronica lodge over girl-next-door Betty to be his wife.
So what if Betty was a blonde, loyal and kind -- when it came to popping the question Archie chose the raven-haired, charming and rich Veronica.
After 67 years of being in a dilemma, Archie is all set to tie the knot with Veraonica -- a choice that left many Archie comic fans disappointed.
Archie Comic Publications announced on May 27 that the flighty redhead from Riverdale picked Veronica over Betty Cooper. That will soon be out in the August publication of the comic series.
However, many fans are questioning whether Archie should marry at all, because it could mean a possible end to the enduring comic-book soap opera.
Already in mid-May, the publisher sent speculation swirling when it announced a special marital-themed storyline for release in August, but didn't reveal the lucky lady.
The wedding will take place after the gang graduate from college, and venture out into the working world.
However, the response to the proposal has been markedly divided -- Betty fans are outraged that the girl next door has been ditched yet again for the beautiful, yet spoilt, Veronica.
