Manila, Philippines – July 1, 2025 - The iconic Archie Comics and SuperManila Comic Con, the country’s premier celebration of pop culture, are thrilled to unveil a landmark collaboration: an exclusive Philippine variant cover of Betty & Veronica comics.

Created especially for SuperManila Comic Con 2025, the limited-edition comic reimagines one of Archie’s most iconic scenes with a Filipino twist. Illustrated by longtime Archie artist and writer Dan Parent, the cover pays homage to the classic “three on a straw” image—where Archie, Betty, and Veronica share a milkshake—but with a distinctly Pinoy flavor. Betty and Veronica are shown holding spoonfuls of shaved ice and ube ice cream, while Archie is nibbling on a stick of barquillos from a tall glass of colorful halo-halo, capturing the charm of Riverdale through a uniquely Filipino lens.
