Not only is the second Life With Archie: The Married Life graphic novel (collecting issues #7-12 of Life With Archie magazine) out this week, but the monthly Life With Archie magazine keeps making news…and just a bit of controversy!
The celebrated Life With Archie #16, featuring the well-publicized wedding of Kevin Keller and Clay Walker, has sold out (word is, copies are going for big bucks on eBay and Amazon), and has got a Million Moms mad at me and retail outlets like Toys ‘R’ Us which carried the issue.… Read the rest
It’s here at last…Archie The Married Life: Volume 1, collecting the first six issues of the Life With Archie: The Married Life Magazine.

When I started writing for Archie Comics about a year ago, the first script I turned in was a 10-page story entitled “All the Doggone Day!”
When I saw veteran Archie artist supreme Stan Goldberg at the NY Comicon earlier this month, I told him that my Archie-writing experience wouldn’t really be complete until he drew one of my scripts.… Read the rest
Okay, maybe not everything, but a lot of my writing time each month goes into scripting two new ongoing series for Archie Comics, a total of 48 pages a month that will appear in Life With Archie: The Married Life, a 64-page magazine format comic (more on that here); Married Life creator Michael Uslan writes the first issue; I pick up as regular scripter with #2!… Read the rest
