The Web

A fresh face in Archie's heroic revival, The Web swung into the Modern Age with New Crusaders #1 in 2012, courtesy of creators Ian Flynn and Ben Bates. Part of Archie's ambitious effort to dust off and reimagine its classic superhero stable, this character shares the page with a colorful roster that includes Fireball, Fly-Girl, The Jaguar, and The Comet — legacy names that give the whole enterprise a thrilling sense of generational momentum. With appearances spanning into the 2020s across New Crusaders and Archie Modern Classics, The Web may have a compact catalog presence, but for fans of Archie's underappreciated superhero corner, that makes each issue all the more worth tracking down.
