But "modernizing" the art in Archie Comics seems so wrong to me.
So very wrong.
Then again, it's their business, and these images might appeal to today's kids more than the old waffle-iron-headed Archie. They've gotta do what they think is right for the property. But man, seeing more realistic versions of the Riverdale gang gives me the screamin' heebie-jeebies in a way I can't quite explain.

Dude, Betty & Veronica are HOT.
And I feel suddenly fat.
The cover's actually really grown on me since I first posted this. Although for the first time in my life, I think I'm finding myself a Veronica guy rather than a Betty.
Also on the plus side -- this isn't supplanting the classic Archie style, as I originally thought -- it's one book of many, and the others will maintain the standard DeCarlo style I dig.
Dude, Jeri is right. They are SMOKING HOT!
