Archie and Friends #146 - "Twilite" part one.
Archie Comics takes a look at the world of Twilight with the parody story “Twilite,” kicking off in “Archie and Friends” #146.
According to Archie’s news release: It’s love at first bite when two new mysterious students arrive in Riverdale. Betty and Veronica are fascinated by the smoldering-hot Ivan, but Jared is warning everyone who will listen that Ivan is really a bloodsucker! Reggie jumps at the chance to help Jared expose Ivan as a vampire, but love… or maybe Ivan… is clouding Betty and Veronica’s vision! Can Archie and the others save the girls from the mysterious Ivan? Is there a greater danger lurking in the darkness?
“Twilite: Part One,” the first of a two-issue storyline that concluded in “Archie and Friends” #147.
“Vampires and the friends and foes of their world surround us every day,” remarks Archie Comics Co-CEO, Jon Goldwater in the news release. “It has been a spectacular treat to bring them to the world of Archie, Betty and Veronica in ‘Twilite.’ I can assure you, Riverdale has never seen a romance quite like this!”
(From that quote, it sounds like Goldwater is saying vampires run around our world every day — but I assume he just means in the worlds of fiction… or does he?)
