A review by wrentheblurry
Archie, Volume 1 by Mark Waid

4.0

In the 70s, the Archie comics were the second ones I ever discovered---right after Richie Rich. I enjoyed them for many years, and then forgot about Riverdale and all its residents. Then an Archie revival began, and last month I binge-watched Riverdale on Netflix, which was so very different from the group I remembered.

When I put this title on hold, I thought it was what that CW series was based on. Nope, this seems more like the old school Archie, though certainly with more vibrant, better-drawn art, and a more modern storyline.

I liked it, and now I've got a hold on the second volume. Thank you for updating my childhood faves, y'all!
