  • Awesome in its badness?

  • Archie proposes to Veronica?

    You heard that right! In Archie #600, Archie Andrews proposes to Veronica Lodge. Not a dream! Not a hoax! Not an imagina – no, wait, it IS an imaginary story! From Newsarama: Now make way for this special story that takes a look at Archie and his friends after they graduate college! What careers will…
