Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Smart, Kind, Auto Mechanic

Answer: Betty Cooper

One of the girls after Archie's heart, Betty is portrayed as being a bit of a tomboy, along with being blonde and beautiful. She is friendly to all in Riverdale, and has many talents, including singing and playing an instrument in Archie's band, cooking, and helping Archie fix his car that is always broken down.
In addition to that, Betty is smart, and one of the best students at Riverdale High School. Is Archie blind? Betty loves him, but settles for his friendship most of the time.
2. Matronly, Teacher, WACs

Answer: Miss Grundy

Poor Miss Grundy! Her name, one that has long been used to describe a prudish woman, suggests that she is older, single, and hopelessly un-cool. She is the gang's homeroom teacher, and sometimes will even have them in her English class. It does appear that she had a life - once.

She worked at a pickle-packing plant and served as a WAC during WWII. She has a tough job trying to motivate Archie and his friends!
3. Wealthy, Spoiled, Scheming

Answer: Veronica Lodge

The only daughter of the wealthiest man in Riverdale, Veronica is very spoiled; she is constantly shopping and spending her father's money. It is odd, perhaps, that Betty, who comes from an average middle-class family, would be Veronica's best friend. Even more off is the fact that Betty and Veronica remain friends while both compete for Archie's affections.

In fact, it appears that Veronica will do anything necessary to undermine Betty. Once she gave her a candy bar with nuts so that Betty would experience an allergic reaction and Veronica could steal Betty's modeling job.

Her dad doesn't punish her enough!
4. Clever, Foodie, Whoopee Cap

Answer: Jughead Jones

Jughead, also known as Forsythe Pendleton Jones III, is Archie's best friend. While he is hopelessly lazy, he is also very clever, good at winning bets and challenges with people who verbally abuse him. He loves hamburgers, and is able to constantly gorge himself without ever gaining weight - except directly after the meal when he has a potbelly.

His trademark whoopee cap, which looks like a crown, is fashioned from a man's fedora, and is his good luck charm. Archie is lucky to have such an extremely loyal best friend!
5. Athletic, Joker, Comb

Answer: Reggie Mantle

Reggie Mantle can excel at any sport, be it football, basketball, or even Kung Fu! But watch out! He will cheat if things aren't going his way, and isn't very much of a team player - the focus is always on him. Reggie likes to be in style, especially with his haircut.

He frequently is seen combing his current haircut, and has a mirror to check out his appearance. The practical jokes that Reggie often plays on people typically backfire, and, as he and Archie compete for girl friends, his jokes sometimes become cruel.
6. Strong, Dull, Protector

Answer: Moose Mason

Moose is the strong, dumb character in "Archie Comics". He is portrayed as being big and athletic, and his presence alone often helps the gang out of difficult situations. Handling bullies with ease, Moose is extremely loyal to his friends, especially Archie, because he knows that Archie would never make a move on his girlfriend, Midge.

He is a bit overprotective and possessive of her.
7. Ice Cream Shop, Confidante, Old-fashioned

Answer: Pop Tate

Pop Tate is the proprietor of the Chok'lit Shoppe, where Archie's gang frequently hangs out. He especially adores Jughead, even though Jughead doesn't do a good job of paying his tab, because Jughead eats a lot and is his best customer. Pop does seem genuinely friendly and caring toward the gang, and they in turn help him out of problems, that usually somehow involve his losing his business.

A lot has changed in "Archie Comics" over the years, but the Chok'lit Shoppe has basically remained the same.
8. Science, Inventor, IQ

Answer: Dilton Doiley

Dilton is depicted as being the typical science nerd. Although he does well in all subjects - with the exception of P.E. - science is his favorite, and he has won a lot of science awards. He applies his knowledge to create inventions, which don't always come out the way he planned.

His high IQ of 198 was revealed when all of Archie's gang took an IQ test. In spite of all of this, Dilton really wants to be an athlete. He's a good guy to have around!
9. School Principal, War Veteran, Pince-Nez

Answer: Waldo Weatherbee

Mr. Weatherbee, the high school principal, was a war veteran before he came to Riverdale; which war, however, has changed throughout the years. Originally he was at the WWII Battle of the Bulge, but over time was portrayed as a helicopter pilot in Vietnam. Once an athlete, he now is heavyset and wears pince-nez glasses.

The poor guy has quite an annoying job, and he really doesn't even appear to like Archie very much, even thinking from time to time about the day when Archie will finally graduate. On the other hand, he does take the time to try to teach him life lessons.
10. Popular, Cartoonist, Athletic

Answer: Chuck Clayton

One of Archie's best friends, Chuck is a very talented athlete. In addition to sports, he also enjoys drawing cartoons, and hopes to be a comic book illustrator when he grows up. In one episode he participated in a game show that was similar to "Win, Lose or Draw". Unlike the other guys in the gang who have many girlfriends, he has a steady named Nancy. Sometimes she gets annoyed at Chuck's pursuit of his goals.
