Archie Andrews, a staple of American comics since 1941, will die in Wednesday's issue of Life with Archie. And he'll say goodbye to the series with one last act of heroism: Archie will take a bullet meant for best friend Kevin Keller, the first openly gay character in his comic universe. In doing so, he'll foil an assassination attempt against Keller and, according to the story's creators, give rise to greater understanding and tolerance in his fictional town of Riverdale. The final issue arrives as many Americans continue to work tirelessly on behalf of gay rights and to extend marriage equality across the US.
"He dies selflessly," said Jon Goldwater, Archie Comics publisher and co-CEO, speaking to the Associated Press. "He dies in the manner that epitomizes not only the best of Riverdale but the best of all of us." Archie Comics first revealed that Andrews' death would mark the conclusion of Life with Archie back in April. The comic is a flash-forward series that catches up with Archie and his friends long after their high school and college days.

SPOILER ALERT

I think the avengers being wiped out by onslaught was probably more compelling

What the frick is this shite
End the series on a normal note, not some politicized social bullshite
I am a huge Archie fan but this is ridiculous
Let me guess... Betty and Veronica are going to be lesbian lovers, and Jughead completes a Male to Female sex change operation

I always figured Mr Weatherby was a packing Jugheads fudge but they say this a kelvin Keller fellow was the first gay character after all.

This is beyond stupid.
I hate to see an institution of 63 years, go, but my guess is circulation died off a long time ago, so they agendized it, and will now end it to make points for gay marriage and gun control.
Love the blurb. Many Americans also work tirelessly on behalf of those who don't want their own marriages cheapened.
Sorry to include that in the discussion. Funny how these issues tend to cause things to lose business.

Wednesday's finale finds Keller as a newly elected senator fighting for tighter gun-control laws. The gun epidemic comes to Keller's attention after his husband is shot trying to thwart an in-progress robbery.
What the frick
Why can't they keep politics out of shite like this
Gun control? Seriously?
Let me guess.... the assassin will be some stereotypical southern KKK redneck Christian who listens to AM Talk Radio all day.

It still amazes me that a group of people are shallow enough to make their sexual preferences define who they are as a person. There is much more to life than what you do in bed, however some idiots can't see past that.

exactly what their movement is doing. Marriage equality is a worthwhile effort. Everything else associated with the movement is not, and the movement will not end with nation wide marriage equality
I feel embarrassed for people with these lame grand gestures who feel they've made themselves culturally relevant and important...gays aren't being hosed down in the streets (at least by cops) (at least by actual/fat/dogshooting cops)

Are their marriages so fragile that the happiness of others threatens them?

As the Riverdale universe spirals out of control, Jughead will just have another cheeseburger.

I feel like I was just spoiled.
I mean if someone posted a Walking Dead or GOT spoiler in here they would be banned.
I was looking forward to the next Life With Archie, but now knowing they will just kill him off?
ruined.

Jughead will go on to a brilliant porn career after a sex tape he shot featuring himself, Betty, and Veronica in threesome is leaked online.

Beetle Bailey needs to go slap the crap out of this guy Archie

The gay agenda has exploded out of hand lately. It was the same thing in a kids movie that I saw recently with my daughter - How to Train Your Dragon pt 2. A gay character comes out on screen during the movie.
