And on top of that, the Fun with Little Archie and Friends Special one-shot will be arriving at stores a few weeks before another diminutive incarnation of America’s favorite teenager! The first print collection of Bite-Sized Archie, a title that will be very familiar to those who have spent any amount of time with us here at Stately Beat Manor, will be released on April 27th, 2022.
