BEING YOUNG NEVER GETS OLD! Oni Press and Archie Comic Publications, Inc. have unveiled the first look at one of the year’s most anticipated and momentous new publishing initiatives . . . beginning this fall in the all-new Archie #1!
This September, a new day is dawning in Riverdale as New York Times bestselling writer, Edgar Award and Philip K. Dick Award winner, and Eisner Award nominee Ben H. Winters joins multiple Eisner Award–winning artist Fábio Moon, rising star artist Nick Cagnetti and multiple Shuster Award-winning cover artist Stuart Immonen to reintroduce America’s favorite teenager . . . and celebrate Archie’s 85th anniversary with a 21st-century testament to teenage idealism and the limitless joy of Archie Comics!
For his entire life, 17-year-old Archie Andrews has had it all: adoring friends, football glory, and a natural charm that always seems to make him the center of attention. Now, through his eyes, experience the warmth and wonder of Riverdale and its near-infinite roster of residents—the popular kids, the endearing oddballs, and everyone in between—as Archie embarks on a whirlwind, all-star adventure through his town’s past, present, and future . . . beginning with a local film festival that’s about to turn everything upside down! And, at the center of it all, lies an enigmatic paradox that only Archie’s pal Jughead Jones can possibly unravel . . . Plus: Puzzles! Pin-ups! Bountiful bonus stories! And a veritable sweet shop of surprises that all link to the same inextricable mystery . . . Finally, your antidote for postmodern malaise has arrived. Welcome to the all-new Archie #1!
Archie #1 arrives September 2026.
Then, just a short step behind the all-new Archie #1 by Ben H. Winters and Fábio Moon, the new Archie Comics line at Oni Press grows with two more must-read series:
Next: In October, Hugo Award nominee Corinna Bechko and Eisner Award nominee Kano conjure a new spell of magic and mischief in Sabrina the Teenage Witch #1! Who’d ever want to be ordinary when you could be a teenage witch instead? Still reeling from the surprise revelation of her secret birthright and with Halloween just around the corner, high schooler Sabrina Spellman is honing her craft one hex at a time and figuring out how to balance her magical new life with the crushing responsibilities of being 16 years old. But when her feline familiar Salem drops a mythical trickster on Sabrina’s literal doorstep, she might not be able to keep her two worlds from smashing together like two busted pumpkins. No time for fate. No time for destiny. No time for homework. Being a teenager is far from magical . . . even when you’re a witch!
Sabrina the Teenage Witch #1 debuts October 2026.
Then, in November, the inferno begins in Archie in Hell #1! In another time, in another Riverdale, Archie Andrews’ radiant life is about to turn pitch black. Separated from his friends and bound by a terrible curse, there’s only one way to save Archie: to damn him. But he won’t be alone for long . . . In the footsteps of Archie’s hit horror series, Archie in Hell, join multiple Eisner Award winner Patrick Horvath and Eisner Award nominee Tyler Crook as they forge a brand-new legend of Archie horror, leaving a blood-stained trail from 1690 to the present day.
Archie in Hell #1 arrives November 2026.
Timed to coincide with the 85th anniversary of Archie’s’ first appearance in Pep Comics #22 in 1941, the new partnership between Oni Press and Archie Comics will soon be followed by a new line of compact comic collections and deluxe graphic novels to be published by Oni this coming fall, in addition to Archie Comics’ publishing and licensing collaborations, as well as a new live-action feature film written by Eisner Award winner Tom King and produced by Phil Lord & Christopher Miller for Universal Pictures in the years ahead.
