Overview

The dark plague of the undead has swallowed Riverdale whole, forcing the survivors led by Archie, Betty and Veronica to flee the formerly idyllic town in search of safe haven. The rag-tag group's once-lighthearted romantic rivalries, power struggles and family feuds are now cast in a desperate light, as tensions and emotions are heightened by the fact that any decision, no matter how trivial it may seem, could now be a choice between life and death. And more and more frequently... death is the winner. AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE- BETTY R.I.P. compiles the second storyline from the hit ongoing comic book horror series AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE.

The sheer strength of this book as a horror title continues to astound. -- WIRED One of the biggest surprises of the year has been how willing Archie Comics has been to take risks. -- MENTAL FLOSS AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE brims with tension and, as usual, elements of surprise. -- NEWSARAMA A superbly conceived and executed effort that only gets better. -- COMIC BOOK RESOURCES Let's give it up for the return of AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE because folks, this is one hell of a series. -- BLOODY DISGUSTING Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Francesco Francavilla have created a wonderful new comic world that manages to punch you in the gut with each emotional development. -- COMIC VINE A fresh take on an existing property that is neither a reboot nor a gimmicky identity-swap, a reinvention of character that both terrifies and evokes sympathy. Well done, Archie. -- FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND
