(There will be many spoilers in this topic if you have not read Afterlife with Archie issues 1-6.)
As we finish one five part story arc, Escape from Riverdale and soon enter another six part story arc, Betty RIP starting this month in October with issue 7, I wonder as to the future of the remaning 14 companions that are left. It makes me want to analyze where the story will go from here and what we can expect now that the Zombie invasion has devastated Riverdale and the last few surviving members of Riverdale have fled to the outside world to seek shelter and safety.
The 14 Survivors from Riverdale
-14 remaining survivors from Riverdale that we know of.
(Archie, Betty, Veronica, Nancy, Chuck, Dilton, Ginger, Reggie, Jason, Cheryl, Kevin Keller, Mrs. Andrews, Mr. Lodge, Smithers)
-We have 11 teenagers in the group and 3 adults
Thoughts on what is to come:
-We know as of issue 5 that 14 survivors remain in Archies group. But there has to be more that survived Riverdale. It would be very interesting if we later discovered that there are more people that survived the Zombie contagion in Riverdale. I just can't believe that its 14 Riverdale residents left and thats it.
-Right now there are 3 adults in the group so in a sense there is some structure of authority there but I imagine a time when the adults are gone and the teenagers will have to band together without the adults and be on their own.
-I hope if people in the remaining group die it will not be senseless but have been of some type of sacrifice to help the group.
-I hope they meet up with others out in the world that they explore, new people that join and contribute to the group.
-It is interesting that now that the first arc is over you just have so much more freedom to tell the story of a surviving group of people from different cultures and classes. How will Veronica cope with this situation when she has been rich and pampered all her life? How will all the survivors cope and manage being on the run from Jughead's undead army with danger at every turn?
-All many know is Riverdale except possibly Veronica and Mr. Lodge that has traveled the world but how is everyone else to manage out in the world, away from their homes, their families, food, shelter and so much now that is gone that they will have to find all of these things and more out in the unknown world.
-Will they find danger not just in the undead but in other humans as well that need to survive as well at all costs?
-Hopefully we will find some of these answers and more as issues are released in the next few months.
