At Comic Con, he spoke with CCO/writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa about writing Afterlife With Archie and Sabrina as well as updates on the live action Archie TV show on the CW. He also talked to writer/artist Dan Parent about creating Kevin Keller and working on some of the more out there Archie comics crosssovers like Archie/Sharknado. He even gets Dan to answer that age old question: Betty or Veronica? And finally, he chatted with Archie President Mike Pellerito about all things Archie including the "New Riverdale" line.
