Hey! We’re back with another preview, courtesy of our friends at Archie Comics. This one’s for a new story appearing in Archie Jumbo Comics Digest #348, which will arrive in stores Feb. 28.
In “The Devil’s in the Details,” Archie’s interview to intern at MLJ Museum with The Shield goes sideways when a swarm of villains show up — but all isn’t as it seems in this story by Ian Flynn, Pat Kennedy, Jim Amash, Glenn Whitmore and Jack Morelli.
BTW, the “MLJ” Museum is a fun Easter egg — it’s a reference to Archie Comics’ original name, M.L.J. Magazines, Inc., which started out publishing superheroes before Archie and the gang were created. It was named for the founders, Maurice Coyne, Louis Silberkleit and John L. Goldwater.
Check out the preview below, along with a complete “classic” Arachie story by Frank Doyle and Stan Goldberg.
ARCHIE JUMBO COMICS DIGEST #348
TWO BRAND NEW STORIES! First, Archie saves the day for Shield with the super-power of super-fandom! Then, Bingo Wilkin’s new song has gone viral! Unfortunately, the song is so popular that Bingo can’t go out in public without being swarmed by fans. How will he manage to celebrate his anniversary with Samantha? Maybe Archie and Jughead can help!
