In an early career victory for the Blonde in a Red Dress, she won the role of “Betty” in the early Archie series, in which she would– Oh my gosh, kill it! Kill it with fire!

Knock Knock
I’m not so sure I’d call this adventure “fantastic”. What is it about the Gates of Hell that makes people want to wander into ’em?
