When I was little, I didn’t like Cheryl Blossom. She made rare appearances in the Double Digests I read. In those comics, she would arrive in Riverdale and upset the love triangle of Archie, Betty, and Veronica. Betty and Veronica didn’t like her, so I didn’t either. Ironically, she’s now one of my favourite characters on the new TV series, Riverdale.

Cheryl plays a slightly different role in this story. She meets Veronica while away at boarding school in Switzerland, and she eventually makes her way to Riverdale. Meanwhile back in Riverdale, Archie has a kind of mental breakdown and decides to live like Jughead. That part of the story was strange, so I enjoyed the Veronica/Cheryl story better.

This is a great third volume in the series!

This was so fun! I love the way this series is progressing. This would probably be a 5 stars, except we were severely lacking in the Betty Cooper department. But all the characters are great :)

As much as I dislike Veronica I loved watching her kick Cheryl's ass.

Archie is ridiculous and I love it.

This volume is the weakest so far. I like the overall tone and enjoyed the Archie/Jughead dynamic. I didn't much care for the Veronica side plot and felt it was too soon to bring the Blossoms in to the mix. (Though it killed me whenever Cheryl referred to Jughead as Jug Handle.)

Also, the Reggie preview did nothing for me.

Still a huge fan overall.

I admit it, I teared up when Archie handed his dad the quarter.

Ahh, Cheryl Blossom. I'm not sure I like what has been going on with her being forced into public school and all, but we'll see how it goes. I have issues with change. But it is good to see her. Always liked her better than her brother.
