Parent tells the Washington Post that the Riverdale influence is "more of a fashion makeover for me. I've changed the hairstyles a bit, and the clothes. And the faces are a little more detailed, but the line work is still the simple classic lines I've always used… I hate over-rendering and too many lines, so I won't go there. Less is more."

Aside from when it comes to Archie's frame that is, then more is more. with a buffer frame, closer to Riverdale actor K.J. Apa.
