Check it out — Archie Comics has shared a preview with us of World of Archie Jumbo Comics Digest #149, which will arrives in stores April 2.
“Gimme Some Space” is one of two new stories appearing in the digest, and it features the first meeting of the Riverdale gang with the newly redesigned Cosmo. You might recall back in 2017 that Archie Comics brought the Merry Martian back from obscurity. The character had a very short-lived humor/science fiction comic published in the late 1950s created by Bob White, and came back as “The Mighty Martian” in recent times. And now he’s making his first contact with Archie and the gang in a new story by Bill Golliher, Bill Galvan, Glenn Whitmore and Jack Morelli.
Check out the preview below, along with a complete classic story from the digest, a closer look at Cosmo and more.
