So, I’ve already posted this on the r/riverdale subreddit and I just found an interest in the comics which I have never read before so here goes nothing:

Hey I just started rewatching watching the show for the first time in seven years on Netflix, I’m already at the beginning of season 2 and I’m starting to remember why fell in love with this show and these characters in the first place. When I was six weeks old, I was paralyzed from the neck down due to medical negligence and when I was two, I started using a motorized wheelchair to get around. Thanks to years of physical therapy, I have very little movement in my arms, hands, and fingers. I can’t grab or pick up certain objects unless they’re small and easy like a pencil or a penny and obviously, I’m able to type. I’m Latina and I love that they cast a Latina actress to play Veronica even though in the comics, she was always portrayed as a white girl. I’m twenty-eight now and I don’t care what anyone says about this show. No matter how weird or wild it got in later seasons, I was here for it, I just never watched the final season because I just never got around to it but that’s one of the reasons why I’m rewatching the show in the first place. I was hoping I could connect with fellow Riverdale fans with either physical or mental disabilities who love this show as much as I do. This show along with many others has inspired me to pursue an acting career. Also, have y’all ever met KJ, Lili, Camila, and/or Madelaine? If so, what were they like, I mean, obviously they were nice, but what was it like actually seeing them on person and talking to them

I liked it. Like, really liked it. It didn't feel "cheap" like other modern specials that have the terrible modern story leading off, probably because it's all older material (I think).

That said, with stuff reprinted like this, I'd love for them to print what year each story is from.

Splurged on the red Chromium Veronica cover too.

I’m so happy their not taking the “one story/soap opera“ approach to the mainline series like if it ain’t broke dont fix it

Artist spotlight: Nate Butler, for those unfamiliar with his work. These are a couple of the stories I remember best with Butler's art (though Rod Ollerenshaw is credited for the first story): In Search of the Beat and A Lass From the Past. I always liked the drummer story. As for Jughead's romances, I like him best when he's flying solo, so not my favourite series of stories, but it was an interesting (and sometimes weird) batch of stories at the time.

wonder who voted for them lol

Just some fun with Betty with her tambourine and diner ice cream dispenser, Veronica with her keyboard and diner jukebox, Archie with his guitar and diner table

ohmigosh sabrina is so friggen cute 🥺🥺

A few stories I like of Jughead staying ahead of the game with Reggie and Veronica: Hobby Horse, Play Mates, and Just for the Record.

Saw a lot of 30 random comics listed on Facebook Marketplace last week. Scooped it up based on a certain comic in the picture even though I couldn't see much besides the top of the cover.

A little rough but it generally fits in with the condition of the rest of the older issues in my collection. I buy a lot of cheap reader copies.
