“Escape from Riverdale: Part One”

In "Escape from Riverdale: Part One," Jughead finds himself caught in a terrifying turn of events after a tragic accident involving Reggie and Hot Dog. With the help of Sabrina, who defies magical law to revive the dog, things spiral out of control when Hot Dog returns as a rabid monster—and Jughead becomes the next victim. Written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and illustrated with haunting precision by Francesco Francavilla, this chilling first chapter of Afterlife with Archie sets a dark, atmospheric tone, all rendered in stark, cinematic style. The cover by Francesco Francavilla captures the eerie mood with a striking, shadow-drenched image of Riverdale under a moonlit sky.
