Archie Digests/ Comics Coming in December 2014/ January 2015
Two Jumbo Comics released in December 2015 and a title change!
-Starting with Jughead and Archie Comics #8 you will see Comics Digests be called Comics Double Digests. Having the name retired in May 2014, Archie Comics is bringing the Double Digest name back to the Digests which had been used for 32 years!
-Two Jumbo Comics released in December 2014!: Archie's Funhouse Jumbo Comics #11 and World of Archie Jumbo Comics #46. My favorites due to the 288 page count. More Archie comics is always good!
-At least 7 Digests released this month and next should have a new lead story! New stories are always cool!
