Why Archie Comics Never Grows

I'm really hoping this is just a delay, rather than cancelled outright!
I'm admittedly really enjoying most of the new Archie titles (surprisingly, Reggie and Me in particular), but a middle aged man is hardly the core audience they should be aiming for, the novelty and media attention of Zombie and Kiss/Ramones/Predator crossover titles aside.
i thought these titles and the return of Dan Parent (along with Ty Templeton) to a classic-look monthly Archie title was a step in the right direction to cultivate a more robust range of readers. As much as we can applaud the success of Riverdale, chasing the older teens and adults, at the expense of the tried and true formula of younger readers seems short-sighted. Although I guess they have decades of digest material to mine for that crowd, even if that material is often quite dated looking.Comment
