comicsalliance: Archie Is Having a Baby with Valerie From ‘Josie and the Pussycats’ [Exclusive] By Chris Sims Over the past few years, Archie Comics has become one of the most socially progressive comic book publishers in the market, with genuinely solid storytelling that’s been pushing the boundaries of what they’ve done with their formula in the 70 years since the freckle-faced teenager made his debut. Today, they announced their latest move: In the upcoming Archie #633, they’ll tell the story of a future where Archie marries Valerie Smith (of Josie and the Pussycats fame) and they have a daughter. Read more. I have to be honest … I NEVER thought I’d see the day that Archie Comics were more forward-thinking than their peers at the Big Two, especially with their marquee character, let alone their marquee line. The fact that they made Valerie a legitimate love interest in the main comics is one thing, but actually going the “Life with Archie” route with them starting up a family is, in a word, awesome. Way to go.

Archie Is Having a Baby with Valerie From ‘Josie and the Pussycats’ [Exclusive]

By Chris Sims

Over the past few years, Archie Comics has become one of the most socially progressive comic book publishers in the market, with genuinely solid storytelling that’s been pushing the boundaries of what they’ve done with their formula in the 70 years since the freckle-faced teenager made his debut. Today, they announced their latest move: In the upcoming Archie #633, they’ll tell the story of a future where Archie marries Valerie Smith (of Josie and the Pussycats fame) and they have a daughter.


I have to be honest … I NEVER thought I’d see the day that Archie Comics were more forward-thinking than their peers at the Big Two, especially with their marquee character, let alone their marquee line. The fact that they made Valerie a legitimate love interest in the main comics is one thing, but actually going the “Life with Archie” route with them starting up a family is, in a word, awesome.
Way to go.
