Archie (2015-) #16

Riverdale gets a fresh start in this oversized collection marking a decade since the franchise was reimagined. Archie Andrews, the easygoing teen at the centre of it all, is joined by his best friend Jughead, sweet next-door neighbour Betty, and the wealthy, sharp-tongued Veronica. Their days at school bring a tangle of crushes, shared jokes and loyalties tested by a love triangle. This version keeps the warmth and silliness of the old stories but adds sharper drama, romance and a dash of local political scheming. A roster of artists gives the familiar cast a bold new look for longtime fans and newcomers alike.
