Looks like Archie and the gang are going to get a new look.
More details on Newsarama …
To be honest with you, the Keeper is speechless. This is a heckuva lot more shocking than evil Batgirl or Clor.

F.O.O.M. (Friend Of Ol' Marvels)
Wow, they look pretty generic. I bet they’ll still have the “classic look” versions, though.
I feel like Lead with a broken responsometer.. nothing makes sense.
Wow, indeed.
It reminds me of that Simpsons episode where Grandpa SImpson and Grandma Bouvier were dating, and Homer lamented that if he and Marge were sisters, then their kids would be hideous pink freaks with no overbites and five fingers, or that South Park episode with the hyperrealistic composite sketch of the four kids. Like it’s a joke on the style or something…kind of surreal.
Well there is a reason Archie comics keep selling and selling long after the sunset of crew-cuts and loafers…
And that is the willingness to dress things up a bit.
