The Archie comics in the supermarket check-out lines don’t have any of this gay stuff (at least I haven’t seen any).
It's for real, though. Perhaps they're very careful about where they market it.
I don’t read it, but I read about it, and Archie has become quite an evil little company. Is it a coincidence that the final issue of the series is or will be #666? They’re relaunching a “more realistic” line of Archie comics, with the flagship being written by Mark Waid. He has used Daredevil as a Trayvon vehicle, and when someone tweeted to him in a calm and rational way about Zimmerman’s injuries, his reasoned reply was, “Don’t you have a cross to burn?”
Superman wears his undies outside his pants and Batman wears his on his head. Seems pretty gay to me...
I know it's true, but it does amaze me how brainwashed these people are.
I read the Archie comics when I'm waiting in the check-out lne, and they seem exactly the same as they were 50 years ago.
Readers Digest has been dumbed down though.
Uh...I hate to be the killjoy who points this out, but they’re all pretty much queer as a football bat. I mean, come on, who wears full-length spandex in public these days? Well, aside from John Kerry...
Throughout much of its history Archie comics touched upon the events of the day, be it the war in Vietnam or "global warming".
What was a comic book for kids is now a comic book by communists.
I didn’t know that. I was never a big Archie fan, but it’s better than the celebrity mags, when I’m waiting to check out!
Like you said, they must tone it down for the supermarket issues.
What about “Big Gay Al”???
Fredric Wertham saw it coming ...
...then again, they have several different sub-series of the comic book. And so certain subjects might be included only in certain sub-series. Sub-series include, Archie, Life With Archie, Archie & Me, Betty & Veronica, Betty & Me, Jughead, etc.
creating new super heroes is tough.
i created Flower Arrangement Guy and because of his special powers, and the letters on his pastel leotards and cape, everyone assumes he is a homo sexual, but he is not.
propagating the notion, that heterosexual men will get more with flowers, Flower Arrangement Guy looks for those in need of his services.

I was bitten by a radioactive mouse once but the only superpower I got was highly concentrated urine.
And Iron Bladder Man is a lousy premise
By a horrible coincidence, my daughter was engaged to an Army veteran named Kevin Keller, at the time Archie comics introduced a queer character of the same name. He didn't care for it.
Unfortunately, he died of service-connected problems before they were able to get married. May he rest in peace.
Bleh ...
My parents really discouraged reading comic books when I was a kid (and strongly encouraged reading “regular” books). I always assumed it had to do with developing literacy ... now I wonder. Are those frames as creepy in context as they are in isolation?
What terrible luck to be serving in the military and to have that name. Very sorry to hear about your loss. Why do we lose people like him while pieces of human trash like Obama’s pal, Bill Ayers, who waged war on the US during Nam, live on.
