Say it ain't so Archie!!!

Can you believe it? Comic fave Archie Andrews will be growing up and settling down in August. Apparently, the comic will be moving forward 10 years. Archie will be all grown up and finally will choose between Betty and Veronica. Not sure if this just a one time thing, or the new direction they're going, but I have to say I'm not a fan. Part of what makes Archie so endearing has been the fact that he's in high school and has that whole love triangle thing going for him. It's like if Batman fought crime without the mask, Superman defeated all crime and truly made the world a perfect place, the X-Men didn't have to face any persecution from their fellow men nor have to deal with villainous mutants and villains, etc. *SIGH* Guess we'll find out in August what really happens.




Personally, I would pick Betty.

If he goes with Veronica, he'll have to do a whole issue on divorce and that would be a buzzkill. I'm sure he's going "Betty".

I read about this yesterday and was shocked! I'm rooting for Betty :-) What the heck are they going to write about now?
