Always Available Downloadable Archie Comics Sampler

This list is a guide to downloading a staple of American comics for generations - Archie Comics. Always available, and there's always more, find out why Archie and his friends have continued to entertain for more than 80 years. From his first issue to the Road to Riverdale, the library has all the Archie Comics you need to read. In 2003, Dad's Garage Theatre Company in Atlanta debuted a play titled "Weird Comic Book Fantasy" with some *very* familiar characters. In 2014, the playwright of "Weird Comic Book Fantasy", Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, became head of Archie Comics. Some might therefore say that Archie's recent renaissance is all thanks to the popularity of work done here in town. Because any list of Archie Comics would be incomplete without mentioning his friends from Riverdale High, some of them are included on this list. His most successful friend, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, also has her own list. To download these works to your favorite device, install the hoopla app! You'll need your library card number and PIN/password to check out ten titles with no wait each month. If you have not changed your PIN/password, it is CHANGE ME. Atlanta Public School students and employees can also log in as part of CLASS PASS with their student ID or Lawson number.
