Sublime

And indeed, ridiculous. There was much laughter when these were shared over the weekend.

whut

The first panel of the second page is the best. Veronica's rap exasperation bursts out of the frame!

wow

What the hell.

Although maybe Mr. Lodge's fortune got wiped out last year so Archie and Veronica are on the same social level now.

Veronica'll say NO

But the cover!

wait, what's going on with Jughead

hmmm Ned I guess if words are in huge, bold, pink letters they have to be pointed out to me.

Has anyone ever proposed IN a jewelry store?

seems like it would remove a lot of the mystery

I think Jughead is dismayed that his friend is making such a dumbass move. So sad! BETTY FOREVER!

Ned you are at your stone cold best in this thread.

I remember one of the funnest nights I had in high school was me & my buddies reading some Archie comics out loud to each other, in similar panel-by-panel breakdown, with each person reading a specific character's dialogue bubbles.

Hahahah thanks. :-)

i always enjoy mike sterling's comics blog, but today's entry on Archie was esp entertaining:

also someone leant me a few issues of 'the black archie' recently, they're terrible sadly:

All I can say is, Carl Jung would have made considerable hay out of Archie comics. He would damn near have wept golden tears over Betty and Veronica.

Well hello there

"The introduction of Kevin is just about keeping the world of Archie Comics current and inclusive. Archie's hometown of Riverdale has always been a safe world for everyone. It just makes sense to have an openly gay character in Archie comic books," Archie Comics honcho Jon Goldwater said in announcing the news.

In an interview , Parent said that the comic is striving for more diversity and that the new character, a "burgeoning journalist" named Kevin Keller, reportedly will appear in Veronica Comics (#202) in September, in an issue titled "Isn't It Bromantic?" (To see character art of Kevin, you can check the blog "Robot 6.")

"Veronica's got the hots for this guy and can't understand why he's not interested in her ... and, uh, he's gay," Parent says in the interview.

The operative word here is "openly". Click on the link for an article from last August with a cartoon of Veronica, Archie, and Betty, three straws, and a malt. (This image will appear on a postage stamp in July.) Now notice that Betty, with hearts over her head, is clearly looking at Veronica and not at Archie.

I think you're dreaming, GordonCash--Betty's eyes are clearly on Archie. Try Betty's pose yourself--you won't be looking in Veronica's direction, cute as she is.

uh

'burgeoning'

Hmmm . . . my cousin writes for Archie Comics, but I don't think he's involved with this.

Speaking of hot trends in Archie comics:

just... no

When did Midge get emo hair???

Also, the "new hot guy" has an unusually angular head for the Archie world.

Jughead has always been the gay one, maybe he will come out of the closet for this Kevin fellow.

When the hell will Jughead become the ICP fan he is at heart is what I wonder.

No wai, Jughead is too indie to be a juggalo.

Jug in the name does not a Juggalo make.

The only thing Jughead is gay for is the cheeseburger.

i think veronica and betty are going to fight!

I would buy all these Crudderz-written Archies.

"I've been sublimating all my love for meaty asses by eating cheeseburgers."

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?
