    Archie #653 is another great chapter in the classic teen drama that proves you dont always have to use sex and violence to make a book compelling. Its not all going to be rosy in Riverdale, but Id still be able to hand this comic to my eight-year-old niece to read. Thats honestly refreshing. Read Full Review

    The issue also features a nice cross-section of characters from the Archieverse, and is most definitely something different from the norm. "Archie" #653 can be enjoyed by existing fans, as well as skeptics who might think that Archie comics feature nothing more than Archie mindlessly chasing Betty and/or Veronica around Riverdale High School. It's fun, it's a little different, and there's even a thing or two to be learned, for those who are up for it. Read Full Review
