ARCHIE MEETS JAY AND SILENT BOB, written by Smith with art from the legendary team of Fernando Ruiz, Rich Koslowski, Matt Herms, and Jack Morelli, is barreling into comic shops on July 9th, 2025, just in time for San Diego Comic Con. Not since Chasing Amy has the Askewniverse extended its reach into Riverdale, this time with none other than Archie Andrews finding himself working a summer job at Quick Stop alongside Randal Graves. Once Jay and Silent Bob arrive on the scene, Archie’s life—and all of Riverdale—only gets wilder from there!
This is Archie’s first comic featuring the iconic duo, and its first ever comic for mature audiences starring the classic Archie gang.
ARCHIE MEETS JAY AND SILENT BOB is a crossover like we’ve never done before! Kevin has brilliantly brought two legendary, generation defining worlds together to tell a story that’s so funny, totally wild, and also heartfelt and moving,” said Archie Comics’ Jesse Goldwater, who was instrumental in making the project happen. “Kevin Smith – a true genius – tells a story that feels both quintessentially View Askewniverse and classically Archie, honoring the incredible legacies of these beloved iconic characters. I cannot wait for readers to check out what I believe is going to be the greatest crossover in the history of entertainment!”
