JUDGMENT DAY, from the team of writer Aubrey Sitterson, artist Megan Hutchison, colorist Matt Herms, and letterer Jack Morelli, is an epic story set to captivate readers with a tale of demonic forces, moral quandaries, and the relentless quest for righteousness.

Issue one hitting shelves on May 22, this miniseries reimagines the iconic Archie Comics characters in a dark, supernatural setting and promises to take readers on one hell of a ride in the first Archie Premium Event. This branding will designate any upcoming Archie events that are too grand for a single one-shot release. With their extended length and scale, these cinematic miniseries will also feature upgraded collector-quality issues featuring cardstock covers, improved interior paper stock, and specialized print finishes.

ARCHIE COMICS: JUDGMENT DAY #1, with a main cardstock cover by Hutchison and variant cardstock covers by Francesco Francavilla, Jae Lee, and Reiko Murakami, releases on May 22 in comic shops nationwide and will be available for pre-order starting February 23 (FOC: April 29).
