A character in the Archie Comics universe is getting a transgender rebrand as part of an effort to make the series "a little bit more queer."

In the new series starring "Strange Science" character Danni Malloy, who was known as the love interest to main character Dilton Doiley and sidekick Jinx Holliday, will be now be a transgender woman in a new comic.

Publisher Archie Comics announced on May 15th that Malloy would be making an appearance in its Chilling Adventures anthology, according to a Gizmodo’s io9 report. The series is written by trans comic writer Magdalene Visaggio and illustrated by artist Butch Mapa.

Visaggio told the outlet that she has been wanting "to make this happen for a long time," thanking publisher, Archie, for never pushing back on her plans to make their books "a little bit more queer."

Will it lose its shite on some unsuspecting clerk when they misgender it?

I will admit to them giving 10 year old High C a boner. I won’t get into Josie and the Pussycats.

They killed Archie Comics with that scummy Riverdale tv show. Now they're just pissing on its grave.

It’s a dude, and part of the reason why Marvel’s comics have been shite for a while.

Why don’t they ever make the characters trans men?

Surprising that Archie Comics is still around. Even more surprising is that people are buying it.

Are people going to cancel it?

I think things are way overboard with the trans thing, but I am not cancelling shite over it.

I remember noticing the drummer….



I couldn’t have been more than 5 or 6. But I knew I liked watching her play the drums… a lot. I didn’t know why I liked it so much just yet. I just knew I did.
