I thought Archie was fucking Mr. Weatherbee?

I think those Freshmen year stories are currently free in the iphone app store. Haven't read Archie comics in 20 years, but will check those out.

I'm thinking this whole thing might be a dream sequence, like JR getting shot.

Veronica will be stuffed in a fridge, leading Archie to run right into Betty's arms.

Couldn't resist picking up #1. I liked the story, didn't care for the art. I mean, not that it was a great story, but I was involved and interested in seeing what happens next.

Anyone still reading? I'm anxious to see if a fridge-stuffing moment happened, but I'm not going to spend my money on it.

I've been an Archie reader for a while, picked up the first two of this arc. Not bad, but of course, the first few pages indicate that this is all a dream, no surprise there.

I read #2 and will probably continue. I admit I'm also reading the "new look" Archie leaves Riverdale arc in Double Digest. Also not bad, and the remainder of the stories are less lame than the last digests I picked up a couple years ago.

I just finished Archie 602. Guess what happens??

WTF, are you serious....sounds about as fun as the recent Spider-Man happenings.

I don't know if I needed the mental picture of

When does the Archie/Veronica/Betty threesome issue come out?

Just read #5--one more to go, then I'm done with Archie floppies

Well, I thought I was done after reading issue 605, part 6 of 6, but apparently 606 is an epilogue. I guess I'll have to get that too, or I can just get the trade. But do I really want to buy the story twice? If I ever reread it I'd pick the trade, of course, but not sure I would. The story was entertaining, even a little stirring at times, but (and yes, I know most comics tend to be fiction ).

So in the end

When does the trade come out?

Mar. 31, which is not that long to wait

Thanks, davidh777. I look forward to getting it.

Saw the Wedding TPB in my LCS today. Interesting that it's slightly undersized compared to the actual comic. It has the six-issue arc (600-605), plus the epilogue from 606. I'd picked up 600-605 and was thinking about 606, but it's fairly short, just one of a bunch of stories in 606, and it's included in the TPB, so I figure I might just pick that up anyway. Yeah, it's a double-dip, but it's only about 10 bucks and I saved $2.50 by not getting 606, and if I do decide to read the story again the TPB is so much more convenient.

They're starting to release some more compilations too, not just the newer stuff.

Double dip already?



"The eternal love triangle that has been the cornerstone of Archie comics for almost seven decades is finally untangled in this seven-part story written by Michael Uslan and illustrated by veteran Archie artist Stan Goldberg. The journey begins when Archie finds himself strolling up Memory Lane, and marries the wealthy and cultured Veronica Lodge. Later we see what happens when he strolls down Memory Lane and marries the wholesome, peppy girl next door, Betty Cooper.

This pivotal series of seven issues is bound in hardcover, encased in a double diecut slipcase, and packaged with a reprint of a classic Archie comic. The book includes all-new material created especially for this edition, including script outtakes, never-before-seen sketches, annotations, vintage covers, and exclusive interviews with the creators."

That actually makes me want to read this series.

I just ordered the Married Life TPB

This was among the similarities. What the heck?
