Josie And The Pussy Cats And The Black Hood Season 2 Lead The Archie / Dark Circle September Solicitations

Here we have the September solicitations and covers coming from Archie Comics and their Dark Circle imprint. The two biggest titles coming out this month appear to new Josie and the Pussycats #1 by Marguerite Bennett, Cameron Deordio and Audrey Mok while from the superhero line we get the first issue of The Black Hood Season 2 by Duane Swierczynski and Greg Scott. Also of note is the 1000 page Archie Comic Spree… that's one big book.

THE BLACK HOOD #1: SEASON 2
The acclaimed crime comic returns with an all-new #1 issue—a perfect jumping-on point for new readers. "The Nobody Murders, Part 1": The Black Hood is no more. Sure, there are rumors that the former cop known as Greg Hettinger is still out there, blending in with the homeless population—and emerging only to stop a violent attack before vanishing again. But the ruthless assassin known as The Nobody considers the Black Hood a loose end, and he's willing to slaughter dozens to flush him out. How high must the body count rise before Greg steps forward to face an opponent he can't possibly beat? Dive into the book UPROXX calls "Highly recommended" and THE MIAMI HERALD regards as "Noir fiction fans will surely dig," as a new season of THE BLACK HOOD kicks off from the killer creative team of Swierczynski and Scott!
