Comic Script by: Patton Oswalt, Jordan Blum, Timmy Heague
Illustrated by: Scott Koblish
Cover Design or Artwork by: Dan Parent

Archie vs. Minor Threats is a collision of the bright and hopeful with the dim and dirty—with hilarious results. Sabrina the Teenage Witch is the link between the two “universes,” and let’s just say that Archie from Riverdale and Playtime from Redport find their situations topsy-turvy in the craziest, scariest way.

When Sabrina the Teenage Witch hijacks a Riverdale field trip to Twilight City to recover a magical artifact, she accidentally lands Archie, Betty, Veronica and Reggie in the costumed criminal underworld led by Playtime and Scalpel. These innocent teens are mistaken for supervillain henchmen and enlisted in Playtime's current war on magic against Top Hat, a mysterious figure from Frankie's past. Meanwhile a starving Jughead and Josie and the Pussycats head to Bite Burger where they encounter Barfly's punk rocker fly $#*@eater—are we about to witness the birth of a supergroup?! The series tells a classic Archie story (Archie breaks bad to impress the girls) while unveiling a can't miss chapter in Playtime's greater journey that will have ramifications in the Minor Threats books for years. From Salem the Cat to Crab Louie this crossover features all the fan favorite characters from both universes.

Issue one of the four issue mini is written by Minor Threats co-creators Patton Oswalt and Jordan Blum with Timmy Heague (Archie Comics' Fear the Funhouse: Toybox of Terror) and art by Scott Koblish (Deadpool).
