[2] Comics historian Don Markstein described the strip and characters: Betty Thompson's life was filled with cocktail parties, cotillions and affairs of that nature.

She wore all the latest high-class fashions, amply displayed by Voight's lush, stylish and highly individual illustration.

Both went through handsome, dashing men by the carload, but through the years stuck with one short, dumpy, seemingly uninteresting guy.

Betty's equivalent of Tillie's Mac was Lester DePester, who had little going for him besides loyalty... During the 1930s, heyday of the adventure comic (lesser ones including Dan Dunn and Red Barry), Voight experimented with storylines about crime and sci-fi.

Its datedness may have had something to do with the fact that despite the obvious quality of the work, Betty never moved out into other media, such as movies and radio shows.
