The character in question is a veteran so the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell angle gets some traction in the story as well.

Archie has been a bit questionable for a while.

Thank you Lord for letting me grow up in the 60’s and 70’s before all this pc bulls**t took over.

Sorry to hear it. I guess I missed Archie’s marriage to Veronica, too.
It’s been a LONG time since I’ve seen one of these comics.

If they really wanted to be “cutting edge”, they should have Archie marry Muhammad.

When I was young I used to buy Archie comics. Now if my kid showed up with one in the house, that would be a catalyst for a deep talk on why Archie is unacceptable.
But I guess Archie isn’t for kids anymore... is that the message of the owners? Because the ones buying this comic will be gays and... well, gays and perhaps uniformed parents.

Have Archie Comics been sold? They actually seemed to be of a Christian bent the last time I saw one.
To: Eyes Unclouded
I left Archie at a young age for the more deliberately absurd Hot Stuff and Little Lotta.

>>> just as Archie is separating from his wife, Veronica.
Now that is news to me. When did Archie and Veronica get married? Last I hard about Archie’s age the company was going to reset them back several years younger into tweenies. There was a thread on it three years ago or thereabouts.

I have a vague recollection of a time when “comic books” actually used to be funny.
