Jeremy Farber Comic Reviews

Archie Comics is using this book as another step towards a new Archie revolution. If they keep this quality up, it will be inevitable.

This issue shows that Archie #1's success was not just a fluke. This is a strong story that is sustainable for issues to come.

This was another stellar chapter in the Archie reboot story. Hopefully, it won't slow down. At this rate, however, there are no signs of that.

This book is a fun read for people of all ages, whether you relate to Clarence or the adults trying to deal with kids.

All in all it seemed like a nice start (or restart) for a character that many people are hoping will come back in a strong way. It was also a nice start for an artist new to the mainstream comics market. It was not so much a nice start for the writing. Hopefully, the kinks will be smoothed out for issue two and after that we may get everybody's favorite beetle Ted Kord back in the main continuity.

All said, this was a good way to end a rocky start, and a nice way to introduce an artist we may be seeing more of in the future. It was an adequateend for Blue Beetle, a character that readers would like to see more of.

A good read for fans of the character and young ones just discovering Disney.
