Archie Has Changed?
No more.
I like the artwork, but I don't know if it's the same feel. Their popularity is not what it used to be and perhaps some change is needed.
Can't sleep.
I am a college graduate who earns his living working as an hourly on a factory floor. I have found that I prefer this to retail management and customer service, which I have also done though admittedly it does not pay as well. I am a Bible Believing Christian and politically I am center-right. This is just a place where I share my thoughts on anything that catches my mind.

NOOOOOOO! I don't like the new artwork! Blasphemy! Archie was my favorite comic book of all time... It's probably lost popularity becaue they broke a golden rule: "If it ain't broke don't fix it"! :(
Wow... I have to say that recently, I was thinking to myself about how cool it was that Archie didn't change.

Archie's popularity is a fraction of what it was 30 years ago and some change is needed if the comic is to survive. Is this it? I don't know. The more contemporary style and the admission of a dark side to being a teen-ager (without compromising on what is good - - you can show the dark side without endorsing it) may be just what Archie needs to survive a few more generations as America's oldest teenager.
I don't like it either, but then, I'm kind of a purist when it comes to that sort of thing.
