Review: Archie Meets Batman '66 #1

By Hunter T. Patrick

Holy crossover, Archie. Nothing is groovier than Veronica’s costumes mixed in with the exploits of the evil villains of Gotham City. This comic begins in Gotham with the dynamic duo facing off against the evil Poison Ivy. The first half focuses on the Batman ’66 world before going to the retro Riverdale, full of 1960s outfits. There is a dastardly new villain in Riverdale with the despicable power to control men. Zoinks. Okay sorry, wrong franchise. This issue serves as a prelude to what is coming up with the story setting up the villains of Gotham going to Riverdale. This issue boils down to setting up both worlds and leading towards the promised crossover. Expect a good number of villains and heroics, along with the good-natured Archie gang.

Review: Vampironica #2

By Hunter T. Patrick

Archie horror is an imprint that is known for some of the highest quality in comics… believe it or not. Jughead: The Hunger is a cool concept, and the execution leaves some to be desired. Does Vampironica live up to the other two Archie titles? Nearly impossible not. Does it deserve to be in Archie Horror? Absolutely. Vampironica has been such a strong title thus far in art, plotting, writing, and fun. The thing that most makes it belong to Archie horror is the delays, which will be minor compared to the other titles (Jughead: The Hunger wins in being on schedule). Archie Horror has some of, if not the best horror comics I have ever read, and Vampironica is on there.

Review: Archie vol. 5

By Hunter T. Patrick

Following the fallout of the last Archie story arc, Archie #23-27 deals directly with the percussions of “Over the Edge”. Mark Waid began his run stronger, and it seemed that the last arc was the best, now (re)reading all the issues in here does this prove that his run keeps getting better and better. Being a huge Riverdale fan, and a proud fan of the current Archie comics (from New Riverdale to Archie Horror), this is a great example why everyone should be proud to collect and follow everyone’s favorite redhead (take that Ron Weasley).

Review: Archie #22

By Dustin Cabeal

I wish that I had written my prediction down for “Over The Edge” because I would impress no one right about now. I still would have guessed correctly, but I think that most anyone that’s been reading Archie regularly and understands bad TV drama could figure this one out from the solicits.

Review: Archie #21

By Dustin Cabeal

First and foremost, I’m not going to tell you who is the person injured in the drag race that happened in the last issue of Archie. Frankly, when I read the solicit I knew who it would be and I wasn’t wrong. It’s obvious given the trio involved, and only one of those characters would actually “change everything” as they’re billing the next issue.
