Sorry to burst your bubble but Casper and Richie Rich have regularly teamed up for various antics!!! And Richie always writes it off as a dream at the end even though sometimes Cadbury joins the adventure and sees Casper too while Casper and Wendy don't even do anything to try and convince them it's a dream. Plus if you consider the movie canon then we know Casper is an old timey rich kid named Casper McFadden.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
Superheroes are cool, but have you ever thought of a series about unrepentant supervillians? Our focus groups suggest it could do well with the 12 to 17 year old male demographic.

Archie vs Predator II is coming out next week, still being written by Alex de Campi, who wrote the first one, and illustrated by Robert Hack, who drew Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. My initial reaction was "eh sure, why not", since the first one was cute and pretty off the wall, but based on the preview this one looks like it might be going in some crazy directions that you really wouldn't expect from its title.

In the aftermath of AvP, Betty and Veronica are the only survivors, together with a teenage Predator who's been surgically modified to look like Archie. But they have a plan! They're going to walk down Memory Lane--which was the plot device used in the Archie Marries series to introduce Archie to the forking timelines of marrying Betty/Veronica, and which they explicitly reference--to travel back in time to when everyone was still alive. BUT. When they get to Memory Lane, it's closed off, and is under renovation from "Waid Enterprises"..

I'm obviously extremely biased given my BSS posting history but, uh, it's a definite buy for me now because I'm a sucker for both Archie AND weird meta-stories.

Speculation based on spoilers for other Archie properties: including this one, that makes three of their non-core titles that are all currently doing wacky multiverse shenanigans (AvP, Jughead's Time Police, Jughead vs Vampironica) so it would probably be incredibly silly and cool if they're building up to a proper Crisis of Infinite Archies

Do you think they'll do a big collected trade if it ends up as a big weird event? The premise sounds amusing, but I don't really follow ongoing titles very much.

I read that one, it's an off-shoot of Spider-Man vs Wolverine from the late 80's I think. They killed Ned Leeds in that (in the original, canon, story, not the what if)because of an ongoing writer's dispute about who the Hobgoblin should be.

The What If also has him develop his Spider-Sense to the point of basically being precognition.

It's just What If? Spider-Man Vs. Wolverine. Aside from the first two volumes, most of the later What Ifs? aren't numbered, they just reference the event/storyline they're spinning out of by name.

Also, if you can grab a trade with What if? 105, that's a good one.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
Immortal Hulk was robbed and Tom King simultaneously deserved it for Mister Miracle and should have been disqualified for Heroes in Crisis.
