Weren’t the Archie characters owned by some Christian publishing group at one time?
Aftermarket Barf Alert . . .
How and why did they insert a male character that self-admittedly liked food better than girls (Jughead)?
Well if there’s one pop culture artifact that kids today identify with it’s Archie comics.

Holding someone up to public humiliation and embarrassment is bullying. But some bullying is more equal than other bullying.
With regards to Orwell.
Apparently, it’s why the Archie comics are targeting that all-important 1% of the market.
One more thing I don’t have to buy. Archie comics, off the list.
I predict that within 5 years, we’ll see our first openly gay Sesame Street characters...I’m totally serious
I will never be able to listen to “Sugar, Sugar” in quite the same way, ever again.
Too late.
“Ah Jughead, where’s your school spirit?”
It ain’t the kissing on the mouth that that is so disgusting, it is the butt licking and coprophagic acts that spread disease and are truly disgusting to any normal human.
re: “ Archie Comics gets first gay kiss with openly gay character Kevin Keller”
Oh, that will make the comic sooo much better now. (sarc)
Talk about desperately trying to be relevant. Give it up, Archie, you died in the 60’s.
And you better cheer on this gross kiss or you are intolerant!
“Talk about desperately trying to be relevant. Give it up, Archie, you died in the 60s.”
There’s an old saying, ‘when in a lean year advertise like a fat cat’.
Sounds like a bid to capture the market, after a poor time selling.
Betcha it'll be transgendered first.
Is it for girls? I mean I just can’t imagine a boy’s favorite comic is Archie, full of the gay or not. “Archie would be so cool except for all this gay stuff, dude!”
