Archie and the Gang is the nickname for the five characters — Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, Jughead Jones, and Kevin Keller. They serve as the main protagonists and heroes on Riverdale. Even though Kevin may be a member of the group, he is rarely seen with the "Core Four". Thus, one can say that he is a lesser member of the group.
