Gaz-L posted:Otherwise the main title is basically the best thing Waid's writing, to the point where it almost feels like he's more focused on it than his Marvel work. That might explain why Champions is hot garbage, Waid only has enough teen-speak in him to shoulder one book at a time.

Endless Mike posted:I think it's more that he doesn't really try to use hip teen-speak in Archie, knowing that Archie is supposed to be timeless, to a point. Also possible.

Agent_grey posted:Whats the likelihood of Archie: The Married Life vol 1 getting reprinted? Its been out of print for a while while the rest are available. Im sure the series was super dumb but ive always wanted to read it. As Archie's financial situation improves they are more likely to reissue popular sold out books. Just be patient.

SomeMathGuy posted:I wouldn't rule out the possibility that you're right, but it's worth noting periodic hiatuses are much more of a thing these days. Saga in particular goes on hiatus constantly. Archie comics going on hiatus is nothing like Saga's schedule breaks in publishing. Archie is still having financial problems on the publishing end and it hinders their ability to put material out in a timely manner. Saga has structured breaks in their publishing schedule because Fiona Staples can not put out 12 issues a year.

X-O posted:I've been waiting on an issue of The Shield for how long now? What's that? You've never heard of The Shield? Well it's a good comic that literally comes out like once a year so I'm not surprised you've never heard of it. LoL, keep waiting my dude. That whole line has probably been binned.

Archie's really hurting financially right now. The stupid "WHO GONNA DIE" thing was supposed to massively bump up orders but a few retailers called their bluff so that massive sales bump isn't as big as they expected.

I believe the company is privately owned currently? So unless the owners need money it won't be going anywhere.

They haven't released a new Sonic comic in like 6 months. They knew this was happening.

The Archie/Sega relationship has been by all reports, super lovely for a long time.
