Cheryl Marjorie Blossom, the self-proclaimed Queen Bee of Riverdale High School in Riverdale, has always been accorded some of the best character arcs in the CW teen drama. These include forming the Pretty Poisons gang after being expelled from the Serpents and dedicating her life to improving the Blossom family’s reputation.

While some shows pride themselves in complex themes, the series has kept its tale simple and precise. In line with this, Cheryl’s saga has unraveled in a way that’s easy for both dedicated and casual fans to follow. However, there is a cenote of extra information about the character both on the show, in the comics, and in other media.

10 First Appearance

Cheryl debuted in Betty And Veronica #320 (1982). She was added to the cast of characters to complicate the relationships between Archie, Betty, and Veronica, something she does quite effectively.

Cheryl is a classic example of a character growing on fans. She didn’t debut with much fanfare, but she soon became as popular as Archie. At the moment, it can be argued that she is even bigger than him thanks to iuclusion in the CW series. Her popularity has seen her appear in dozens of other comic issues as well as most episodes of the TV show.

9 Her Favorite Color

Cheryl Blossom’s best red outfits aren’t truly “red.” In Season 3’s “Chapter Fifty-Two: The Raid,” she stops an “I like your red outfit” comment by insisting that the color is actually Pantone’s Flame Scarlet.

Pantone’s Flame Scarlet is still a shade of red, but trust Cheryl to insist on being specific about things. Pantone’s Flame Scarlet is a bright color, and Cheryl likes to be recognized wherever she goes. Thus, it’s understandable that she would settle on it instead of the thousands of other available shades.

8 Her Relationship With Toni

Cheryl is definitely one of the best LGBTQ characters on TV. However, her being portrayed as a member of the LGBTQ+ community is exclusive to the show. In the comics, she’s dated only male characters that include Archie, Dilton, Reggie, and Moose.

Her storylines on the TV series have helped addressed important issues in society, most notable homophobia. As villainous as Cheryl is, everyone sympathizes with her when her mom forces her to attend “The Sisters of Quiet Mercy” institution for conversion therapy. Her relationship with Toni has also helped bring out the more human side of her as it’s during their special moments that she stops being mean and manipulative.

7 Her Favorite Subject

Cheryl enjoys history more than any other subject. This detail can be found in the in-world guide “The Riverdale Student Handbook” which was released in 2018.

Cheryl’s love for the humanities is correlated to her social nature. She values people but believes she is the best person alive which is admirable since confidence is a good thing but also off-putting since pride is a negative trait. Her love for history also spills out of the classroom on a few occasions. For example, she quotes Margaret Thatcher while singing “Unsuspecting Hearts” with Josie McCoy in Season 2.

6 Why She Disappeared From The Comics For A While

Cheryl appears in the first few issues of Archie Comics before she and Jason disappear. She reappears after 12 years in Veronica, Vol. 1, No. 39.

Cheryl being written out of the comics has to do with the fact that she was considered too sexual for young readers at first. It was a strange decision considering she could just as easily have been reimagined in a more child-friendly manner instead of being written out of the series entirely. Luckily, there have been no such concerns on Riverdale since it’s a teen show.

5 She Loves Stray Animals

There are a couple of differences between Cheryl in the comics and on the show. She might be too mean on the show, but she has a heart sometimes in the comics. In the comic Cheryl Blossom #34, it’s revealed that she enjoys picking up stray animals. She also has a Pomeranian named Sugar.

Owning a Pomeranian matches Cheryl’s personality since she loves cute things. It’s understandable for Cheryl to be portrayed as a less mean person in the comics since the target audience is mostly children. Mature audiences who follow the series can handle all the venom she spews.

4 Her Grade Point Average

In Season 4, Archie lets it slip that Cheryl has a 4.0 grade point average. This is impressive given that she has always been portrayed as someone more interested in extra-curricular activities than in academics.

Despite the fact that she doesn’t like studying, Cheryl has always been an intelligent manipulator and schemer. Most of her plans tend to be detailed, and even though several of them have failed, a good number of them have been successful. It isn’t a stretch to presume that she has a high IQ that also manifests inside the classroom.

3 She Could Have Been Played By A Different Actres

Madelaine Petsch originally wanted to play Archie’s long-term friend and the Register editor Betty Cooper. She’d been a fan of the Archie comics all her love and considered Betty her favorite character. However, the casting director David Rappaport felt she would be a better fit for Cheryl.

It’s hard to imagine how different Cheryl would be if she had been played by someone else. Such is the case with most TV characters that have been portrayed so well by the performers who nabbed the roles. At the moment, fans have every reason to be thankful that fate played out the way it did at the audtions.

2 She Has A Real Twitter Account

Cheryl is on Twitter, though she doesn’t use it very regularly. That said, this isn’t necessarily true within the show’s canon. In real life, Cheryl Blossom actor Madelaine Petsch created a Twitter account with the handle @CherylBombshell.

The trend of fictional characters being on Twitter began as early as 10 years ago. So far, characters such as Homer Simpson, Barney Stinson, and Peggy Olson are on the platform. Such accounts normally help in boosting a character’s likability. Sadly, Cheryl hasn’t been tweeting that much in recent years.

1 Her Distinct Sense Of Style Is Present In The Comics

The TV version of Cheryl Blossom is indeed brilliant. She might not be appreciated enough to the point she would be considered an icon like the likes of Meredith Grey and Walter White, but the comics version gets all the praise. Cheryl from the pages is ranked 92nd in Comics Buyer’s Guide’s “100 Sexiest Women In Comics” list.

In the comics, Cheryl puts a lot of effort into her looks just as she does on the show. There are even remarkably detailed descriptions about the kind of lipstick brands she buys and the shops in which she purchases her clothes. It’s also something that ought to be appreciated a lot more about Cheryl’s TV version.
