South Side Serpents #1 is a new one-shot comic book launching from Archie Comics in January, written by David Barnett, drawn by Richard Ortiz, with colours by Matt Herms, letters by Jack Morelli and a variant cover by Tyler Boss. Working as an Archie/Riverdale prequel it will focus on SD Jones passing the mantle of leadership of the Riverdale gang, The Serpents, to his son, Jughead, leather jacket and all. The comic will show off the edgy side of the Serpents, gang war, dark places "Dark aspects, gang wars, that's sometimes what Archie is."

Archie will be relaunching the Betty And Veronics digest classic volume, with a new ten page story by Jamie L Rotante and Brittney Williams, focused on TikTok – or something very close to ir.

And Archie is getting a new 80th Anniversary Digest series, with a brand new lead ten-page story by Bill Golliher and Pat and Tim Kennedy, intended to reward their oldest readers.

And they are offering this 80th Anniversary print to just those kind of folk. Is this the much-promised special surprise?
