I recommend people buy comics based on what they’re interested in reading, not any hypothetical future value. Things promoted as collector’s items are usually over-produced and rarely become scarce or valuable.

I was named after this young lady (woman or whatever she is, old, lol), and I used to get picked on with it because of my name. I wondered what made my mom named me after a stuck-up rich kid.
But her being one of 16 she remembered reading or seeing the pictures of the comic when she was younger.
My ancestors also has had the names Archie, Betty, Reggie,Josie and Midge (her real name Margret), and my high school sweetheart was named Rodney we called Moose ( he was 6′5″ and I’m only 5′2″)
I came to realize the reason she has named me Veronica because of my generosity,faith and wisdom I carry on for the most richness I could ask for.
So is it worth the price for me to start reading these comic books or collect them since it could acollectors item?

What I want to see is January McAndrews and Jughead get together.

Look it up, you’ll love it.

Johanna Says:

“This summer, Archie #600 features Archie marrying Veronica in a storyline that looks at the gang after they graduate college…”

“…You are right that the marriage isn’t for real — this is going to be an imaginary story, and later in the storyline (unless they’ve changed their plans), we’ll also see the opposite, Archie marrying Betty instead.”

Then to complete the triangle they can show readers a third fork in the road even later in the storyline, in which Betty and Veronica (after they find themselves (OK, more of themselves than they’ve already found) during college, come out as bi, and gradually fall for each other) marry each other after graduation.

It would make for more a more entertaining comic if Archie moved to Utah and tried to marry them both.

Archie is dreaming one of his ideal dreams. Doesn’t anyone realize this? Things will get back to normal as soon as he wakes.

I notice a factual error (the issue hasn’t come out yet) and an unpleasant amount of gender stereotyping in just your first paragraph. You are right that the marriage isn’t for real — this is going to be an imaginary story, and later in the storyline (unless they’ve changed their plans), we’ll also see the opposite, Archie marrying Betty instead.

There is no way Archie will marry Veronica. I personally am in favour this marriage, but I feel its not gonna happen because of editorial concerns (remember when Superman died? And Captain America is coming back again)

I’ve written a highly comprehensive piece on the entire phenomena here:

I’d love to have your opinions on the entire discussion, particularly as I look at it from an industry point of view, and not just from the perspective of a fan.

Well, that’s surprising, and sad that he doesn’t choose Betty. Then again, I always thought Betty should hook up with Jughead anyway.

But you know what’s gonna happen– Archie’s going to propose to Veronica, then have second thoughts, propose to Betty, with everything getting steadily more confusing, but then in the end he’ll decide he won’t get married at all, and everything will be back to normal. At least, that’s how I expect the arc to go…
