Archie Comics-Where to start?
As Archie Comics celebrates its 80th anniversary, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. After all, to begin at #1 can quickly unravel considering the multiple titles and issues, some of which are very had to find. Online and on ebay. And what if you want to focus on a certain character or…

Mean Girls: Senior Year Review
Like the back said, Mean Girls was a bonafide 200s hit, so why not milk the cow and push out a sequel. And I’m not talking the disasterous sequel movie no one talks about.
