He is portrayed by [[KJ Apa]] on ''[[Riverdale (American TV series)|Riverdale]]'' and Agastya Nanda in [[The Archies (film)|''The Archies'']]. For his physical appearance, he has [[red hair|red]] hair, [[freckle]]s on his cheeks, and light-colored skin. In ''[[Archie's Weird Mysteries]]'', he appears to be of [[Scottish people|Scottish]]-[[Scottish Americans|American]] descent, as shown in the episode "The Day the Earth Moved", when his father wanted to keep with their [[Scotland|family tradition]] and wear a [[kilt]] while ringing the bell of [[Riverdale (Archie Comics)|Riverdale]]. In character, Archie is a klutzy, gormless nebbish pursued by his high school's two hottest girls.

==Character==
===Creation===
Archie Andrews debuted in ''[[Pep Comics]]'' #22 ([[cover-dated]] Dec. 1941). The ''[[Little Archie]]'' series, published from 1956 through the mid-1990s, chronicles the adventures of pre-teen Archie and his friends while in elementary school.

===Concept===
Archie is a typical small-town teenager, who lives in [[Riverdale (Archie Comics)|Riverdale]], where he attends Riverdale High School. He is extremely clumsy and can make some dumb mistakes, but always has the best of intentions. He forms a crush on rich girl [[Veronica Lodge]], but also loves his next-door neighbour, [[Betty Cooper]], forming the [[love triangle]] driving many of the comic's plot lines. Archie is one of the three vocalists and the rhythm guitarist of his band, ''[[The Archies]]'', along with Betty and Veronica, his best friend [[Jughead Jones]], as well as his nemesis [[Reggie Mantle]], who battles Archie for Betty and Veronica's affections. Archie often comes into conflict with Veronica's rich father, [[Hiram Lodge]], and Riverdale High's principal, [[Mr. Weatherbee|Waldo Weatherbee]].

===Biography===
He is the only child of Mary and Fred Andrews. His father works as a mid-level business executive. His mother, initially a homemaker, takes a job at a real estate agency in later years. Mary and Fred Andrews are of Scottish descent. Archie's paternal grandfather, Andy Andrews, immigrated to the United States from Scotland and befriended [[Moose Mason]]'s Russian ancestor, who had emigrated at the same time. Archie has been depicted wearing the traditional kilt of his ancestors and playing bagpipes (but not very well). His childhood is featured in the "Little Archie" stories, where he had a dog named Spotty.

Outside of dating, Archie largely enjoys sports. He plays [[baseball]], [[basketball]], and [[American football|football]] for the Riverdale High teams. Though often not as good an athlete as Moose Mason, Chuck Clayton or Reggie Mantle, he proves a valuable member of the school team. Coaches [[Riverdale High School (Archie Comics)#Coach Kleats - head coach|Kleats]] and [[Coach Clayton|Clayton]] value him for both his athletic abilities and his team spirit. However, Archie's athletic abilities vary from story to story, due to his frequent clumsiness. He also has a tendency to pay more attention to cheerleaders than to his playing. For this reason, Coach Kleats often tries to avoid resorting to use Archie in a game.

[[Image:Life With Archie 238.jpg|thumb|200px|Issue 238 of ''Life With Archie'' from 1983, in which Archie's jalopy is destroyed]]
Automobiles are one of Archie's hobbies, and he is passionate about his car. For decades, he was shown driving a 1916 [[Ford Model T]] jalopy called "Betsy". In Archie double digest No. 192, it is said to be a [[Ford Model A (1927-1931)|Model A]]. In a story during which Archie tried to have his jalopy insured, he described it as being a "[[Ford Motor Company|Ford]], [[Chevy]], [[Plymouth (automobile)|Plymouth]], [[Pierce-Arrow]], [[Packard]], [[DeSoto (automobile)|DeSoto]], [[Hudson Motor Car Company|Hudson]] ..." explaining that his jalopy was "a collection of replacement parts from several junkyards", some of which dated back to 1926.

Archie's jalopy was destroyed permanently in issue No. 238 of ''Life With Archie'', which was published in 1983.<ref>[http://www.comics.org/details.lasso?id=212875 Life With Archie #238], The Grand Comics Database Project</ref>
In the newer comics, he drives a mid-1960s' [[Ford Mustang]], which is more contemporary in appearance, but still unreliable and prone to breakdowns. ''Archie Digest'' 239, published in October 2007, included a new story in which the one and only Mr. Lodge owned an antique car that had a strong resemblance to Archie's jalopy. The story featured Archie's grandfather who, as a teenager, looked and dressed like Archie from the 1940s. It turned out that he owned the same jalopy that Mr. Lodge now owned.

====Death====
In April 2014, 72 years after the character's first appearance, Archie Comics announced that the adult Archie would die in the July 2014 issue (#36) of ''Life with Archie'',<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/archie-slated-die-pages-comic-book-article-1.1749348|title=Archie slated to die in pages of comic book|author= Ethan Sacks|date=April 8, 2014|work=NY Daily News}}</ref> while the teenage Archie would continue in the other Archie comic series titles. Archie dies when he is shot in the abdomen while saving his friend, Senator [[Kevin Keller (comics)|Kevin Keller]].<ref name=death>[https://montrealgazette.com/entertainment/Archie+Andrews+shot+saving+friend+Kevin+Keller+Life/10028232/story.html "For fans of Archie, comic book character's sacrifice to save gay friend makes an impact"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140715152354/http://www.montrealgazette.com/entertainment/Archie%20Andrews%20shot%20saving%20friend%20Kevin%20Keller%20Life/10028232/story.html |date=July 15, 2014 }}. ''[[The Gazette (Montreal)|The Gazette]]'', July 14, 2014.</ref> The story is written so as to terminate both storylines, without committing to which girl Archie married, and contains several flashbacks to the ''Little Archie'' days. The final issue (#37) is set one year after Archie's death. All his friends memorialize him, and Riverdale High School is officially renamed Archie Andrews High School in his honor. The story ends with Jughead, owner of Juggie's (formerly Pop's Chock'lit Shoppe), serving a sundae to three children who resemble Little Archie, Betty, and Veronica.

==Relationships==
[[File:ArchieAndrews2015.jpg|thumb|left|Archie Andrews as he appears in ''Archie'' No. 1 (July 2015).]]

===Romances===
Archie and Betty have been best friends and love interests all their lives. When Veronica Lodge moved to Riverdale, however, he switched his attention to her, making Betty both angry and jealous. She began competing with Veronica for his affection.

In the comics, he sometimes thinks of Betty more as a close friend and confidante. He likes that she is always available as a back-up when he does not have a date with Veronica.

He dislikes it when Betty dates other boys, wanting her to stay available as his second choice. Now that Betty sporadically dates [[Jason Blossom]] and [[Minor characters in Archie Comics#Adam Chisholm|Adam Chisholm]], Archie shows a tinge of jealousy. Archie is married to Betty in Archie Marries Betty: Life With Archie series and is married to Veronica in Archie Marries Veronica: Life with Archie series. Both scenarios produce different outcomes for Archie's overall life, as well as Betty's and Veronica's.

Archie often competes for the attention of Betty and Veronica with his rival, [[Reggie Mantle]], and occasionally other boys. Veronica keeps Archie guessing, never letting him take her for granted. Betty, on the other hand, clearly lets Archie know she adores him. Archie chooses to keep fighting for Veronica.

A third love interest is a wealthy red-headed girl named [[Cheryl Blossom]]. At first, she was deemed too sexual and a bit promiscuous and was taken out of the series, but due to her popularity, she was brought back in ''[[Love Showdown (Archie Comics)|Love Showdown]]'', a four-part mini-series in which Archie attempts to make a decision between Cheryl, Betty, and Veronica.

In ''Archie'' No. 608 (May 2010), Archie began a relationship with [[Josie and the Pussycats (comics)#Valerie|Valerie Brown]], making her Archie's first girlfriend of African descent. [[The Archies]] and [[Josie and the Pussycats (comics)|Josie and the Pussycats]] were touring together and, while rehearsing, Archie and Valerie secretly fell in love as they co-wrote the song "More Than Words" that described their feelings. Issue No. 609 revealed that this relationship had seeped into common knowledge by the end of the tour. Archie and Valerie were forced apart when the Pussycats were touring Europe without the Archies, but hoped to keep their relationship going. In the comic ''Archie Marries Valerie'', Valerie is expecting a baby with Archie, whom they name Star.

In ''Archie'' No. 700 (July 2019), which signifies the start of another soft reboot, it is revealed that Archie got into a relationship with [[Sabrina Spellman]] over his summer break while everyone was on vacation after she had saved him from a pack of wolves.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ew.com/books/2019/06/11/riverdale-reacts-archie-sabrinas-romance-new-comic-preview/|title=Archie and Sabrina's romance creates drama in new comic preview|date=June 11, 2019|website=EW.com|language=en|access-date=2020-02-04}}</ref>

===='Archie Marries' issues====
On May 15, 2009, [[Archie Comics]] announced that Archie would finally pick one of the girls to marry, in a story arc in ''Archie'' #600–606 (Aug. 2009 – Feb. 2010).<ref>{{cite press release|url=http://archie-blogs.archiecomics.com/archie_news/2009/05/archie-andrews-is-getting-married.html |title=Archie Andrews Is Getting Married! |publisher=Archie Comics |via=Archie-blogs |date=May 15, 2009 |access-date=August 16, 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090826083028/http://archie-blogs.archiecomics.com/archie_news/2009/05/archie-andrews-is-getting-married.html |archive-date=August 26, 2009 }}</ref> However, Archie Comics publicly revealed this to be a dream sequence<ref>{{cite web|url=http://comicsworthreading.com/2009/10/08/media-discover-archieveronica-marriage-an-imaginary-story/ |title=Media Discover Archie/Veronica Marriage an Imaginary Story |date=October 8, 2009 |publisher=Comics Worth Reading |access-date=August 16, 2010}}</ref> to show two possible futures: one where Archie marries Veronica (issues 600–602), and the other Betty (603–605). In both, he has twins: a boy also named Archie who looks like him, and a girl named after and resembling whichever girl he married. Issue 606 was an epilogue to ''[[Archie Marries Veronica/Archie Marries Betty]]'' that returns to the comics' old format.

===Friends===
[[File:PepNumber67.jpg|thumb|Archie and the gang on the cover of ''[[Pep Comics|Pep]]'' number 67 (May 1948), artwork by [[Al Fagaly]].]]
[[Jughead Jones]] has been Archie's best friend ever since childhood. When Jughead first came to Riverdale, he was in a bad mood and tended to dismiss Archie. However, Archie, of good heart, tried to cheer up Jughead and the two have been inseparable ever since. Jughead wears a trademark [[Whoopee cap|clubhouse beanie]] (a Depression-era style of makeshift hatwear, crafted from an inverted fedora with a scallop-cut brim, and decorated with assorted pinbacks) and an inscrutable, closed-eyelid expression. Often Jughead has to help Archie out from a tricky situation. Jughead usually knows when Archie's ideas will not work, but is powerless to avoid getting involved.

[[Reggie Mantle]] is Archie's constant romantic and athletic rival. Each often makes attempts to separate the other from Veronica, occasionally exhibiting physical violence, and both have won their fair share of scrapes with each other. Reggie takes every opportunity to play practical jokes on Archie and make cynical wisecracks. However, Reggie is often shown as a companion to and of Archie despite his arrogance and competitive nature, and they are often seen together practicing athletics or pursuing dates.

Archie's other friends include [[Dilton Doiley]], the local genius who gets Archie into and out of trouble through his experiments and inventions; [[Moose Mason]], the dim-witted but likable star athlete of Riverdale High who is often Archie's teammate; [[Chuck Clayton]], another of Archie's teammates who was originally shy and reclusive but came out of his shell when Archie befriended him; Moose and Chuck's girlfriends [[Midge Klump]] and [[Nancy Woods]], two of the very few attractive girls Archie does not fall for; and [[Big Ethel|Ethel Muggs]], a girl with an enormous crush on Jughead, who often wins his heart with the use of fresh-baked cookies.

====The Archies====
{{Main|The Archies}}
[[The Archies]] is a garage band containing Archie (vocals and rhythm guitar), Reggie (bass), Veronica (vocals and keyboards), Betty (vocals, lead guitar and percussion), and Jughead (drums). Archie founded the group himself. Although not as famous as [[Josie and the Pussycats (comics)|Josie and the Pussycats]], the band plays numerous gigs and has some notoriety. In the Little Archies series, the band just starts to form, although Archie, Betty, Jughead, Reggie, and Veronica start to play different kind of songs.
