Oni Press and Archie Comic Publications, Inc. have revealed an ambitious and wide-ranging publishing partnership that will mark a milestone new beginning for Archie, Betty and Veronica, Jughead, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Josie and the Pussycats, and the rest of Riverdale’s most iconic characters across a distinctly original and stylistically reimagined slate of monthly comic series, original graphic novels, and prestige collections honoring the full breadth and influence of Archie Comics’ nearly nine-decade history.
The joy of being young. The pain of growing up. In 2026, the fantastical, pure-pop existence of “America’s Favorite Teenager” will be thrown into overdrive as Archie Andrews reaches a once-in-a-lifetime crossroads between then and now, daydream and reality, the heat of the moment and the vast expanse of eternity, across three daring new monthly series from some of the most brilliantly innovative creators working in the comics industry today: multiple Eisner Award nominee W. Maxwell Prince, Hugo Award nominee Corinna Bechko, and Harvey Award winner Patrick Horvath, working alongsideriveting artists, includingmultiple Eisner Award winner Fábio Moon, Nick Cagnetti, Eisner Award nominee Kano, and Russ Manning Award winner Tyler Crook.
Timed to coincide with the 85th anniversary of Archie’s’ first appearance inPep Comics #22 in 1941, the new partnership will officially begin in Fall 2026 with a new slate of ongoing, monthly comics series:
ARCHIE #1 Written by W. Maxwell Prince Art by Fábio Moon and Nick Cagnetti September 2026
SABRINA THE TEENAGE WITCH #1 Written by Corinna Bechko Art by Kano October 2026
ARCHIE IN HELL #1 Written by Patrick Horvath Art by Tyler Crook November 2026
The new Archie line will be editorially overseen by Oni Press Editor-in-Chief Sierra Hahn with additional contributions from Senior Editor Bess Pallares and Editor Megan Brown with guidance from Archie Comics‘ own Senior Director of Editorial Jamie Rotante andEditor & Art Director Vincent Lovallo. Full creative details on each series are being kept under tight wraps, but readers and retailers can expect to hear more as Oni Press and Archie begin a unified marketing and communications campaign for their new slate that will include key appearances at the annual ComicsPRO Industry Conference in Glendale, CA and San Diego Comic-Con 2026 in the months ahead.
Following the debut of the all-new Archie #1 in September 2026, the unprecedented publishing partnership between Oni Press and Archie Comics will continue as Oni releases a wave of brand-new collections spanning all eras of Archie’s history in variety of formats – including compact digest editions, deluxe hardcovers and omnibi, and comprehensive box sets – that will spotlight contributions from the characters’ original creators John L. Goldwater, Bob Montana, and Vic Bloom, alongside those from a decades-spanning cast of seminal writers and artists including Dan DeCarlo, Veronica Fish, Francesco Francavilla, Erica Henderson, Stan Goldberg, Tom King, Paul Kupperberg, Dan Parent, Samm Schwartz, Fiona Staples, Kelly Thompson, Michael Uslan, Mark Waid, Chip Zdarksy, and many more.
In 2027, the line will expand further will the debut of an all-new line of middle grade and young adult graphic novels – set in their own, accessible continuity outside of the core Oni Press publishing line – that will feature contributions from some of the most acclaimed and recognizable talents writing and illustrating for those audiences today. More details on those titles will be revealed in mid-2026.
Coming up, Archie will next appear on the small screen in a live-action horror series Afterlife with Archieon Disney+ followed by the big screen in a new live-action feature film written by Eisner Award winner Tom King and produced by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller for Universal Pictures.

Rick Sanchez, the most wanted man in this and every other universe, is on the run. With a bounty on his head, every government, military, pirate, mobster, bounty hunter, bail bondsman, religious institution, theater troupe, circus clown, and endangered species is on the hunt to bring in Rick—DEAD OR ALIVE.

OUTRAGEOUSLY OTHERWORLDLY AND BACK FROM THE GRAVE WITH A SCORE TO SETTLE!Oni Press invites readers into a spectacularly terrifying new vision of the underworld in this extended excerpt from Spirit of the Shadows #1, the arresting new limited series from the phantasmagorical minds of breakout cartoonist Nick Cagnetti and Daniel Ziegler. Arriving in comic shops on January 28th, Spirit of the Shadows #1 features the first full-length artwork by Nick Cagnetti since his extraordinary debut with 2022’s Pink Lemonade.
Once, Erik Leroux was a mortal musician, selflessly devoted to his music and his true love, Katrina . . . until his sudden death plunged his soul into the carnival-like torments of the Spirit World beyond our own. Now, reborn as a phantom with fleeting memories of his life among the living, and forever cursed to bear the arcane costume his corpse wore to the grave, Erik will claw his way back from the infernal planes to uncover the mysteries of his own life . . . and avenge the dark sins that transformed him into the SPIRIT OF THE SHADOWS!
The artistically dazzling and emotionally gut-wrenching new addition to the canon of creator-owned superheroes rises into comic shops everywhere on January 28th, 2026, featuring covers by Nick Cagnetti, David Lafuente, Karl Kerschl, and Matt Lesniewski . Don’t miss this day-glo hybrid of Jack Kirby’s THE DEMON, Mike Allred’s MADMAN, and Todd McFarlane’s SPAWN — with an eye-catching style and gripping narrative hook that’ll keep you searching the endless underworld for the next page of the story…
Founded at the turn of the 20th century outside of Annapolis, Maryland, the Crownsville Hospital was a notoriously segregated, all-Black psychiatric institute. After decades of overcrowding and neglect—alongside darker, more-persistent rumors of patient abuse and illegal medical experiments—it was finally closed. Today, it stands condemned—a crumbling testament to a legacy of all-too-real terror inflicted on a marginalized and vulnerable community. But even as a ruin of its former self, Crownsville still casts a long shadow. . . . When an unexplained death inside the abandoned hospital is ruled a suicide, Annapolis police detective Mike Simms and journalist Paul Blairare are compelled to dig deeper, only to discover the reality of the horrors that once took place there . . . and the powerful connection they share to the anguished spirits of the dead that are still locked within its walls. Crownsville #1 is a tense debut mixing history with horror to deliver a debut that mines the past to face the future.

In the far future on the desolate exoplanet designated Copper 9, the humans are long gone but the robotic worker drones they created to mine the planet’s resources are still hard at work. Together, they have managed to forge their own makeshift society . . . or so they thought until a previously unknown kind of robot – the dreaded “Disassembly Drones” – are activated by the mega-corporation JC Jenson to disassemble any worker that deviates from its original programming. But when a rebellious young worker drone named Uzi forms an unlikely alliance with two disassembly drones – Serial Designations N and V-can they, together, uncover the secrets of their origins . . . and stop the spread of the unsettling mechanical virus known as the Absolute Solver?
Robots, violence, teen angst, mad science, love, loss, doors, hormones, and chaos! What more could you ask for? A pen, perhaps? It’s a clicky pen! (Ask your kids. They’ll get it!)

WRITTEN BY STEPHANIE YOUNG ART AND COVER BY ALLYSON LASSITER
Join Maple and Margaret Sanford in The Pancake Trap as they learn that differences can be strengths, change can reveal who we truly are, and that love is thicker than batter.
Maple and Margaret Sanford might be sisters, but they couldn’t be more different. Ten-year-old Maple is a pancake-obsessed griddle cook determined to save their grandma’s failing restaurant, Dot’s Diner. Margaret is a college-bound beauty queen who can’t wait for their mom to sell the run-down restaurant. On the last day before Dot’s Diner will be sold to the town’s multimillionaire mogul, the girls are thrown into a dangerous food-themed treasure hunt, looking for gold left by runaway outlaw Crispy Cruller. Joined by a trusty friend, helpful robot drone, and adorable pup, Maple and Margaret will dive deep into the twisted caves and caverns underneath their town facing one syrup-sticky flapjack trap after another. With nothing more than their grandma’s cookbook clues to guide them, will the Sanford Sisters be able to put their differences aside, find the loot, and save Dot’s Diner before it’s too late?
From the creators of Star Beasts, Stephanie Young and Allyson Lassiter’s newest adventure is stacked full of fun foodie hijinks and features ten pancake recipes to make at home.

GENDER QUEER: THE ANNOTATED EDITION HC
WRITTEN, ART, AND COVER BY MAIA KOBABE
Dig deeper into one of the most banned books in America with this annotated edition of Maia Kobabe’s seminal autobiographical work.
In 2014, Maia Kobabe—who uses e/em/eir pronouns—thought that a comic of reading statistics would be the last autobiographical comic e would ever write. At the time, it was the only thing e felt comfortable with strangers knowing about em. Then e created Gender Queer. Maia’s intensely cathartic autobiography charts eir journey of self-identity, which includes the mortification and confusion of adolescent crushes, grappling with how to come out to family and society, bonding with friends over erotic gay fan fiction, and facing the trauma and fundamental violation of pap smears. Started as a way to explain to eir family what it means to be nonbinary and asexual, Gender Queer is more than a personal story: It is a useful and touching guide on gender identity—what it means and how to think about it—for advocates, friends, and humans everywhere.
This special annotated edition calls on voices from academic and creative communities to further shed light on Kobabe’s work—exploring the technicalities of comic creation, the history of the LGBTQIA+ community, and highlighting personal anecdotes from a host of writers and artists discussing their own experiences growing up queer. Featuring commentary from designer and animator Phoebe Kobabe (The ABCs of Identities), cartoonist Ashley R. Guillory (Queers at the Table), Dr. Sandra Cox (professor of English at Southwest Missouri State University), Matthew Noe (Lead Collection & Knowledge Management Librarian at Harvard Medical School), author Hal Schrieve (Fawn’s Blood), and many more, this beautiful hardcover edition promises to be a wonderful educational tool for years to come.

THE ROLE-PLAYING GAME OF THE PLANET OF THE APES CORE RULEBOOK HC
WRITTEN BY ANDREW E.C. GASKA, & E.L. THOMAS ART BY CHRIS SCALF, RUNA I. ROSENBERGER, CHANDRA FREE, & SHANE MOLINA COVER BY BILL SIENKIEWICZ
The global sensation of the Planet of the Apes comes to tabletop in this official role-playing game!
The Role-Playing Game of the Planet of the Apes will challenge every idea you have ever had about a role-playing game. You will be thrust onto a planet where humans are the lowest order of living things and the superior beings are apes. It’s the evolutionary process—but in reverse.
Become an intellectual chimpanzee who seeks to better apekind through science and exploration. Choose an orangutan statesape whose weapons are philosophical debate, political savvy, and the power of the Sacred Scrolls themselves. Perhaps a gorilla soldier is more your style—honor-bound to protect Ape City and lead aggressive expansions into new territories. What else, if not an ape? Be a time-lost astronaut struggling to grasp a world gone insane. Become a mute tribal human forced to scavenge for resources as you are hunted by murderous gorillas on horseback. The rules even allow you to play mutant survivors who use the power of their minds to turn their enemies against each other.
Built on the official Magnetic Variant (D6MV) of the classic D6 System role-playing game rules created by West End Games, The Role-Playing Game of the Planet of the Apes is easy to learn yet full of challenges to master. With settings and lore written by sci-fi novelist Andrew E.C. Gaska, this core rulebook contains all you need to role-play in this upside-down world where apes evolved from humans:
Detailed histories and lore from Planet of the Apes 24 character classes to choose from Optional Stun and Encumbrance Rules SRP Defenses create fast-paced combat Extraordinary Abilities give your PCs an edge Quirks and Expectations help define character motivation Statistics for the mutated monstrosities that lurk in the Forbidden Zone Plus a host of new Gear and Weaponry that will help turn this upside-down world right Compatible with all Magnetic Press Play’s West End Games D6 products
