Archie Andrews

Archibald "Archie" Andrews(December, 1941- ) is the main character of the Archie Comics book series. Though his full name is occasionally given as Archibald, he is better known by his nickname, Archie. Archie remains a smooth skinned sixteen-year-old despite the fact that he is more than six decades old. He is the only son of Fred and Mary Andrews.

Archie's love is divided between the rich and refined Veronica Lodge and the poor and athletic Betty Cooper. He is very good hearted and a very good friend, but when he is around anyone, people must keep their eyes open, for Archie is an accident waiting to happen and always gets involved in the funniest situations.

Archie is also the lead singer of a band, The Archies, where Cooper, Lodge, Reggie Mantle and Forsythe Jughead Jones also perform.

Despite being a redhead with squares around his hair, Archie remains very popular among girls in his hometown of Riverdale.

Among the people who stay away from Archie to be far away from this walking hurricane are Hiram Lodge and Riverdale High 's principal, Mr. Weatherbee.
