Very nice! I dislike new Archie and I love classic Archie. I just emailed Nancy and I will buy a copy of this story!

If this keeps happening no one going want the book. That God we got the first issue. Adam Hughes art is beautiful. I hope it works out.


This is unfortunately the status of comics nowadays. You need to preorder everything three months in advance, publishers release the comics whenever they want, etc.


This is why I am not buying new comics anymore.

Here's the short version of that answer: EXACTLY THE SAME STORIES THAT APPEARED IN THE REGULAR DIGESTS ISSUED A MONTH OR TWO PRIOR TO THE PUBLICATION OF WHATEVER 1000-PAGE DIGEST YOU HAPPEN TO BE LOOKING AT -- MINUS THE NON-ARCHIE STORIES (Josie, Sabrina, Li'l Jinx, etc.)


Oh wow, I did not know this. I thought they were books containing carefully selected stories from the past. Good to know!

In the afternoon I use my computer but at night I use my phone. Like right now I'm in bed typing on my phone.


I do the same. Laptop during the day and iPhone at night.

I just started listening to the episode posted this past Saturday, August 27, and I now realize what might be the reason of the ending of this podcast. It is clear that Jonathan is not a fan of the new relaunch of Archie and I have to say I agree with him. My feeling is that Archie is becoming like the current Marvel Comics. Don't get me wrong, I think each publisher has the right to do anything it can to maximize the profits (this is the goal), but I am also a believer that readers have the right to stop reading if they don't recognize their heroes anymore.


I am a big fan of Spider-Man and the current stories written by Dan Slott are nothing like the classic Spider-Man. What you see on those pages is a different and new character. This is why I stopped reading hose stories.


Same thing for Archie. The Archie written by Mark Waid and drawn by many different artists is light years far from the classic Archie we all loved.


What do you guys think?

All About Archie / Re: Quick Question--Digest Content

Would it be possible to have a quick summary of the digest titles currently published? Sometimes I don't understand the differences between all of them.
