As previously mentioned, with the 2018 Comic Con International: San Diego (or SDCC) ending today, I’ve been showcasing all of the trailers for The CW Network of programming that are most topical to our demographic of readers. Essentially the comic book and horror themed stuff that came to light yesterday. I’ve actually finished with all of their super-hero programming and those clips along with several others that you might find interesting can be examined HERE. Our next clip takes us to the town of “Riverdale” to see what dramas and circumstance will befall Archie Andrews and his friends. Let’s take a look.
The Premise: The series follows Archie Andrews’ life in the small town of Riverdale and explores the darkness hidden behind its seemingly perfect image.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: I might have mentioned that I occasionally enjoyed the Archie Comics when I was growing up because my Grandmother had the habit of buying me the collected digest-sized editions and some of them were really charming. I ended up getting way into the superhero stuff as I grew older but still, some fond memories and today the Archie Comics company has something for everyone. This show takes you on a dark and mysterious road into the unknown at times and the subjects dealt with are not suitable for the younger ones in your family. I find the series compelling and interesting and I’ve not missed an episode yet. What do you think and will you still be watching or giving it a chance based on the third season trailer? Chime in down below.
