Honestly, before I started working at the comic shop, I was not a huge comic reader. I grew up reading 'Archie' and have an incredible love/hate relationship with Archie Comics. I got back into it when I started living with some roommates who were really comics fanatics.
When I would read the 'Archie' comics when I was younger, I was rooting for Betty and Archie way over any alternative.
I never gave up on 'Archie.' I started picking up 'Archie' comics when I was in my thirties, and then I started subscribing to them.
I am new to superhero comics, though growing up I read Archie comics, religiously. I've been doing a lot of catching up, reading what's out there and it's been wonderful to see what's going on in contemporary comics.
The first work I ever did in comics was for Archie Comics, and I didn't do that very long because I did other stuff.
Comics are so one-dimensional, especially 'Archie.'
My dad is a huge 'Archie' comics fan.
If 'Jingle Belle' harkens back to anything, it's sort of the Harvey Comics. Not really 'Archie,' but more of a teenage version of what Harvey Comics would have become, with the type of fantasy wonderland of her and her various friends.
I love romance comics. I grew up with 'Archie' and got into other classic series as I got older, and I've been diving into 'Patsy Walker' since starting work on this project.
My two biggest influences are Archie comics and Dennis the Menace.
What's really great about the Archie Comics as a whole is that everybody is relatable.
My dad taught me to read by reading comic strips in the Saturday paper and Archie comics.
I am a Tintin girl and grew up on Archie comics. Then I was introduced to Mr. Bean.
My character is Toni Topaz, and she's from the new-generation Archie Comics. I will be rocking the signature pink hair.
Comics shouldn't be 'tools' for anyone's agenda except for the characters. And I am speaking only of super hero action comics. I love many of the alternative comics that are like journalistic stories. Documentary comics, a mix of reportage and fiction. Those are just great.
I don't need to write comics for a living. I have movies and TV for that. I write comics for one reason and one reason only: I love comics. I love the form, the structure, the storytelling process, I love everything about it.
