Fan-favorite writer Frank Tieri (THE
HANGMAN, Wolverine) and artists Pat & Tim Kennedy (THE DEATH OF ARCHIE) deliver a new wave of
madness in October with a brand new ongoing series spinning out of the
bestselling JUGHEAD: THE HUNGER ONE-SHOT!
During the full moon, Riverdale falls under siege. After discovering his dark lineage in March's JUGHEAD: THE HUNGER ONE-SHOT by Frank Tieri and Michael Walsh, Jughead Jones struggles to put his past behind him with Betty Cooper: Werewolf Hunter and Archie Andrews hot on his trail!
"We purposely left the door open with the one shot, we told you if you made JUGHEAD THE HUNGER a hit we'd make more-- and since you more than held up your end of the bargain-- here we are," said writer Frank Tieri. "Fans can expect more of everything they loved about the one shot now as we expand our universe-- more werewolf Juggie, more bad ass Betty, more conflicted Archie and more twists and turns than you can shake a severed arm at.”

Artists Pat and Tim Kennedy, known
for their work on the LIFE WITH ARCHIE
series and the headline-making event THE
DEATH OF ARCHIE, join Tieri in bringing the classic characters into a world
twisted by supernatural elements. Colorist Matt Herms (THE ARCHIES) and letterer Jack Morelli (AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE) will
also add their talents to the series.
“They're doing a great job,
capturing the look and feel of the original as much as possible while still
bringing their unique style to the table,” said Tieri.
The new series debuts in comic shops
and on digital platforms just in time for Halloween on October 25th,
2017 and features covers by Francesco Francavilla, Robert Hack, and Michael
Walsh.
