Reginald "Reggie" Mantle (1941- ) is a fictional character in the Archie Comics book. His full name is given as Reginald Mantle, but he is usually called by his nick-name Reggie Mantle. Reggie's family is fairly well-to-do, although certainly nowhere near the level of Veronica Lodge's. His father Ricky Mantle owns a newspaper-publishing company. His mother's name is unknown. In spite of his evident upper-middle class status, he's remarkably cheap, and the first time his schoolmates remember him inviting them to a party, he had filled the room with vending machines from which to obtain the party food.
Reggie is Archie Andrews' rival, and he has a perennial crush on Veronica. The fact that Veronica loves only Archie makes Reggie jealous, so he enjoys making Archie's life miserable by playing practical jokes on him. Yet many of his schemes against Archie tend to backfire and allow Archie to be the victor. Veronica also tends to use him primarily to make Archie jealous. Despite the rivalry, him and Archie generally respect each other and remain good friends. Like the rest of the characters, he is eternally in Riverdale High School.
Reggie is a very talented athlete who excels at American football, baseball and basketball. He is also interested in another girl, Midge Klump, who is the girlfriend of another member of Archie's gang, Moose Mason. This infuriates Moose and Reggie has received some unkind, almost brutal to say the least, treatment from Moose at times. But Reggie never gives up on his attempts to date Midge, often thinking of ways to get past Moose by taking advantage of the latter's low intelligence or any other weaknesses. Sometimes, Reggie targets Jughead Jones instead, thinking that he is too lazy or stupid to do anything about it, and receives some payback when Jughead proves that he is smarter than he looks.
Though he is mainly attracted to Veronica and Midge, he occasionally seeks to date other women, including Betty Cooper.
Reggie is vain and thinks of himself as God's greatest gift to women (this may be the reason why Veronica likes Archie more than him), but behind all that vanity lies a warm-hearted teenager.
Reggie is also a guitar player for The Archies, and naturally thinks of himself as the most important and talented member of the group.
In the Spanish versions of the comic book, Reggie's name is Carlos.
