Archie Comics is proud to announce that the acclaimed AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE and CHILLING ADVENTURES OF SABRINA series will be returning -- under the new ARCHIE HORROR imprint -- to comic store shelves this Spring.

The much-anticipated second issue of THE CHILLING ADVENTURES OF SABRINA by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and artist Robert Hack will be hitting store shelves on April 15th, followed by AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE #8 -- an issue inspired by "The Shining" -- by Aguirre-Sacasa and artist Francesco Francavilla on May 6th.

In speaking on the return of the series, Aguirre-Sacasa teased the debut of a third series in the Archie Horror line and spoke of the fan response to the titles: “[The Archie Horror books] have prompted the best work of our careers,” says Aguirre-Sacasa. “To take these iconic characters and reimagine them and place them in situations they’ve never been in before—it’s a blast, and I’m glad people are responding to it.”

About time

love these books!!! I just wish that they would get a regular release schedule with them

@bh6shouldhavehadsilversamurai: Yes horror. Have you read them? Afterlife with Archie is more brutal than the Walking Dead.

Hopefully since they are getting their own imprint, they will be released with more consistency.

I have read them, and I don't think that Afterlife or The Walking Dead are all that "brutal" to be honest.

ILL BELIEVE IT WHEN I SEE IT. NOT FOOLING ME AGAIN ARCHIE

Woo hoo! Finally!

FINALLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! *throws a fit*

Never read an Archie comic and I have only watched the Sabrina show but, this sounds interesting especially Afterlife (which I here is awesome)

ARCHIE rising up! They are doing good stuff recently.

Indeed.

real talk though: was the first issue not one of the best issues of 2014. for me it was, for sure.

glad to see the series is still alive after almost four months of delays.

Right?!

Nice.

An Afterlife with Archie story inspired by The Shining sounds pretty neat!
