For seven decades Archie Comics has maintained its squeaky clean publishing policy. Even today with all the violence, sex and 'questionable' language seen in most modern day comics, Archie Comics goes against the mainstream and is popular as ever.
Despite its self-censoring, Archie Comics still manages to be on the cutting edge of comic book publication. New print formats, new art styles, multi-cultural characters and even 'alternate' timeline stories have kept the franchise fresh and relevant without compromising its 'family friendly' image. I applaud the staff of Archie Comics. I'm sure it's not been easy.
Kids love Archie Comics, parents love Archie Comics and there are good reasons why. They're 'safe' to read, are fun, well written and drawn and successfully bridge the generation gap.
In The Best Of Archie Comics the very best stories from each decade are reprinted and interesting historical text chronicling the decades and key issues make this not only a fun TPB to read, it also makes it a key reference source for the history of Archie Comics.
