Prepare the fainting couches..

Keller is introduced by Veronica in issue NO. 202, titled "Isn't it Bromantic?" A first look at the issue shows Kevin telling Jughead that he is not interested in Veronica. And he explains why.

''It was high time they added a gay character to Riverdale," says Jon Goldwater, Co-CEO, Archie Comics. He says, "the addition is also a way of making the comic more inclusive. Archie's hometown of Riverdale has always been a safe world for everyone. It just makes sense to have an openly gay character there."


In truth, it'd be hypocritical if the RR people go to go nuts over this. After all, the Archie comics have had a witch for years (Sabrina) and no one went wiggy over it.

Like Randi's coming out - way too fucking little, way too fucking late.

Now, if Jughead responds to the big revelation, "Meh. I'm an atheist." Then I might be amused.

Typical. Next they'll have a character who likes having sex with sheep, and Svenson the janitor will have a relationship with his mop. What the hell perversion can they come up with next, Betty and Veronica in a lesbian relationship?! Oh, wait a minute...
