Quote from: botolo on August 06, 2023, 09:15:32 PMI wonder what happened after 1968 that brought sales of Archie comics down a spiral.
On one side, I think one of the main issues that the comic book market has right now is that it targets old readers and does not cultivate new readers. Even the idea that you have to go to a comic book store to find new periodicals and that most of the comic book stores are places for adults is not good for the market.

I would think retail price is additionally a problem when it comes to getting comics into younger reader's hands.

Absolutely. The Kindle editions are a bit cheaper, but I think most parents getting Archie material for their kids would just download a ton of free samples. I can't imagine a parent paying full price for a physical digest for their kid.

I review "Movie Mishap" from Archie Jumbo Comics Digest #342.

I review "Sounds Like Music", a 2022 story written in partnership with the Children's Tumor Foundation that introduced a hearing-impaired character named Grace Alondra. It was cut from the digest that it was scheduled to appear in. It's available to read for free online as a PDF (link in the review).

I review "Babbi's Riverdale Beach Party!" from Betty and Veronica Friends Forever #21.

I review "Just Beach-y!" from Betty and Veronica Jumbo Comics Digest #315.

High School (2020-2024)

By the time that the gang was ready to enter high school, New Riverdale was almost over; miniseries Sabrina the Teenage Witch: Something Wicked still had some issues left. A few original graphic novels and TV tie-in novels came out during this time, but mostly it's been classic-style stories, horror one-shots, and Web comics.

This is where the Archieverse is at this point in time: New Riverdale is over. Riverdale is the only TV series left - and not for much longer. The Classic Archieverse is kept alive with new 5-page stories in the digests, trade paperbacks, and reprint floppies, but there's nothing really noteworthy going on there.
