Fan Favorite Artists Annie Wu and Veronica Fish
Join Mark Waid's Critically Acclaimed ARCHIE Reboot in November
Wu (Black Canary, Hawkeye) and Fish will handle art duties for upcoming issues of the bestselling ARCHIE relaunch.
Following the mega-successful and beloved launch of the new ARCHIE book from the legendary team of Mark Waid and Fiona Staples, superstar artist Annie Wu and rising star Veronica Fish join the series in November.
Wu, known for her stellar work on hit series Hawkeye and Black Canary, will handle the art for #4 while Veronica Fish will take on issues #5 and #6.
“Annie has the perfect handle on these characters and we’re lucky to have her come in for a special, one-issue story. Annie’s a unique and versatile talent and really the perfect person to step in and showcase these characters in a new way, while still holding true to the foundation Fiona put in place.”
- Mike Pellerito, Archie Comics President
Fans got their first glimpse at Veronica Fish’s vibrant take on the Archie gang with her promotional image for the new RIVERDALE series in development at The CW .“Veronica’s a real hidden gem. Mark my words – she’ll be a star before she’s done working on these two issues.”
- Mike Pellerito, Archie Comics President
Fiona Staples, with colorists Andrew Szymanowicz and Jen Vaughn, will continue her character defining run on ARCHIE through September’s issue #3, introducing new faces and fan favorites to the town of Riverdale.
“She not only nailed the style, but also got to the core of each character. Archie, Jughead, Betty, Kevin, Reggie, Midge, Veronica, and so on. Just perfect. Fiona was, hands down, the perfect artist to launch this series, and it shows.”
- Mike Pellerito, Archie Comics President
