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.
