Ratings and reviews

Still really digging the art style. It's fun every once in a while to see Archie reimagined, so I always love seeing sidestories and universes. I am not too sure how I feel about the current scenario they have set up. One of the things I enjoy about the infamous love triangle is the uniqueness that it's not just two random girls who like the same boy, it's two girls who also happen to be best friends who like the same boy. I'm not too sure the current story has it set up for Veronica and Betty to really be friends...but we'll see. I would also like to see more classic Archie characters, as they seem to be putting unequal weight on those who have joined only more recently. Still looks cool. And, of course, Jughead is awesome. *edited for typos

Cute continuation to the series. Will keep reading to see how this unfolds. So far it's pretty standard, but they seem to still be setting everything up. The new art style is definitely interesting, and it's nice to see the depth of character.

I love Betty in this,she lets Trev have it.
