Archie Comics - C/D?

Substituting food for love, so sad.

So I'm not on 77 and I'm sure this has been covered to death over there (and elsewhere?) but isn't Kevin Keller the name of a dude on ILX?

What Simpsons edisode has the Archie gang throwing Homer out of the Jalopy and saying "Stay out of Riverdale!"? Anyway, I just remember in the commentary them saying that they didn't license that at all.

"duh stay out of riverdale" never fails to crack me up. apparently it was the episode where Sideshow Bob runs for mayor.

Jughead never seemed gay to me (also I know that pic above is a shop). Who needs chicks when you can has cheezburgers?

xp Oh right! Because at the same time, Bart is being thrown out onto the lawn by Haldeman and Ehrlichman.

"Lousy Riverdale punks. Think they're too good for me!"

Has anyone ever proposed IN a jewelry store?

As Slate notes, things are getting strange. Besides which:

A late December release will depict President Obama and Sarah Palin sharing a milkshake at Pop Tate's soda shop.

it actually is rather amazing that "Archie" has yet to receive the live action, blockbuster film treatment yet. only a matter of time i'm sure.

not a "blockbuster" but certainly "live action":

(from 1990)

Never knew of the existence of this. Mind = blown.

^^ I watched that on TV when it aired.

I boycotted the tv movie, I was so appalled. Now I'm imagining that "So appalled" is actually about the Archie movie, I wouldn't put it past Kanye.

I taped that & watched often!

it actually is rather amazing that "Archie" has yet to receive the live action, blockbuster film Broadway musical treatment yet. only a matter of time i'm sure.

either Archie or Happy Days

Ok I just bought the KEVIN KELLER miniseries #1 (actually Veronica #207).
I haven't read it yet but –––––– I am worried Kevin will run into the Christian Archie series Archie. Like Kevin is trying out for the football team and Jughead tries to introduce him to the Gospel of John like he was ALWAYS doing in Christian Archie. And where it goes from there is too sad to say!
What I am saying is Archie has one world that is full of fundamentalist xtian teens and another where Kevin is getting married, which gets rid of Riverdale's "Anytown U.S.A." vibe, doesn't it?
This is fucking with me in the best way!

OMG Jughead is wearing a yellow muscle shirt with a hamburger on it.

i wish i knew where my dad's old archie comics were :(

The first half has Kevin's gal pal from Bricktown explaining her one-time crush on a prepubescent Kevin. This sequence is weird because it has concerns about prom, etc, when the timeline suggests this flashback takes place in elementary school. Maybe sixth grade at the latest?

The second half is also a flashback in which Kevin recalls coming out to his parents. His dad, the colonel, is proud of his son and encourages Kevin to follow in his footsteps by entering the military. Either he came out on July 4 or Bricktown just likes to party, because fireworks are going off in the background, with a big American flag at the fore.

abbbbs have you seen "archie out of context" yet??

Someone at Archie is working really hard on the modernity angle

My cousin Paul is the lead writer on the "Life with Archie" comic, so he's written quite a bit of the Kevin Kellar stuff. After all his years in the industry, it's funny that he's getting his greatest success with friggin' Archie.

Also given the Occupy parody links from Nicole a few posts up, get this (from the NYT story):

Meanwhile, Mr. Goldwater, a married father of two, is running Archie solo. An “Occupy Riverdale” comic and an animated “Sabrina the Teenage Witch” series are imminent.

re: the co-CEO of Archie Comics: “[T]he word ‘penis’ became somewhat of a campaign slogan and her preferred method of referring to employees in lieu of their names,” their new filing says."

Silberkleit, they say, invited Hell’s Angels to Archie’s Mamaroneck offices in an apparent effort to “intimidate” them, and has repeatedly inquired about the whereabouts of the handgun and 750 rounds of ammo her husband kept at the office.
