* How has there never been a live-action Archie sitcom? The books have numerous loony wacky stunts and stories that could easily be replicated on the small-screen. I get that Archie isn't ''always'' wacky goofy shenanigans, but with over ''80 years'' worth of comics, there are literally TONS of stories they could turn into decent sit-com episodes.

** Even though most stories are slife-of-life style comics and lacking in the crazier gags, don't forget that it is a comic. The scenes of Archie (Or anybody) getting abused are meant to be taken as slapstick comedy, not an accurate depiction of the abuse of a teenage boy. Note how often a character can be shown with missing teeth and black eyes, and the next scene they're perfectly alright. They get smacked around with no consequences because there are no consequences. Yes, some comics are more serious, but that doesn't mean every comic is a serious drama. They're still cartoon characters, and thus they're injured only for as long as the artist draws them that way.

* How have Archie's parents not sued Veronica and Mr. Lodge or had them arrested and charged with assault and battery and assault with a deadly weapon by now? We've seen them punch, kick, and slap Archie over the stupidest and minor of things. Any judge with the slightest inkling of competence would have both of them found guilty by the end of the day. And before you say that Mr. Lodge might have a compete powerhouse of a lawyer, there is a story where a poor person was able to sue a rich person and get every dime they had. If my son came home from a date with a girl that is known to ave a short fuse and her father an even shorter one and he has multiple injuries, I would be on the phone with my lawyer faster than Wilson Kipsang on the 60m dash. So why haven't they done it yet?

*** Well, it would probably be a juvenile facility of some sort and not a jail (as Moose is under 18), but yes, it seems odd he is allowed to get away with being a thug, on top of treating his girlfriend like property. Especially these days, with more attention paid toward bullying, violence at schools, social media, etc. An example of ValuesDissonance and/or SocietyMarchesOn ?

*Why do Archie Comics let Riverdale influence their comics so much? We havent had a proper ongoing Archie or Betty and Veronica series in years, just a bunch of half hearted minis with varying ugly art styles. Whatever happened to the decarol style archie ongoings?

*** Repeating an answer I gave above, comics like that are meant to be taken as slapstick comedy. A lesser version of how Yosemite Sam can have an anvil drop on his head and be completely fine the next scene. Archie comics can shift from serious drama to lighthearted comedy, and many earlier comics went for a slapstick style where any injury done by fists and feet are quite minor. Even if teeth are broken and eyes are blackened. I suspect there's a bit of whiplash considering how many stories are not nearly that zany, which results in the assumption that those stories show a brute with serious anger control issues seriously injuring people, instead of a big dumb guy who mistakes things and people are minorly inconvenienced by it.

** Going by the reboot, you can indeed tell stories with the gang even when Archie's either actively going steady with Veronica or even dating Sabrina. Mind you, both Veronica and Betty find Archie to be really important to them (Betty knowing him since they were little kids for one) even when he's broken up with both of them.
