Archie vs. Predator II #1

[history79]

"Archie vs Predator 2 is, of course, about teenagers fighting the galaxy’s greatest hunters and, mostly, losing terribly. Lotta kids die. It’s also about corporate reboots, since both the main Archie title and the Predator franchise were rebooted after AvP 1 was released. So not only are the survivors of Archie vs Predator 1 fighting the new, improved version of the galaxy’s greatest hunters, they’re also fighting against their own obsolescence."

I think I can safely say that I was not prepared for this in any way, shape, or form.

A follow up to Archie vs Predator? No, was not ready.
A commentary on the endless Archie continuities and reboots? Nope, didn't have a clue.
Archie talking in pictographs? I still don't know why that's happening.
The Archie refugees just casually mentioning Jughead time travelling? What even is this?

I mean, this looks amazing, don't get me wrong. I was just not prepared for how not prepared I was for this to exist when I read this scan.

Motto.

Archie is talking in pictographs because that’s a teenaged Yautja made to look like Archie

Wait, are they meeting up with the Mark Waid/Fiona Staples Archie gang or the CW Archie Gang?

[coldfury]

I'm thinking the former, because the latter has a much more survivalist outcast Dilton as opposed to supergeek Dilton.

Did Veronica took a wrong turn at the "Cosmic Interstate"? That might be a good reference for the Archie Multi Sonic-verse... another comic that is in "ruin" as theirs is...
Sonic DID had a crossover with Sabrina way back then...
