“Shadows on the Grave is as fun and clever as it is horrific. You’ll smile, even laugh at parts, while other moments will make you cringe and wince. That’s the point. This book is the product of a true master who knows exactly what he’s doing.”—All-Comic

Flashback: In this section, we shine a light on a comic series that was released before 2017, and this week we have not one, but two, horror comics! Do you love Riverdale on The CW but wished the series was just a tad bit darker in tone? These Archie-centered comics have exactly that flavor. Jughead the Hunger was included in this flashback because it was released prior to this column's creation, and I don't want to leave out a member of the Archie gang. Enjoy!
Afterlife with Archie Vol.1: "Collects Afterlife With Archie #1-5:
When Jughead's beloved pet Hot Dog is killed in a hit and run, Jughead turns to the only person he knows who can help bring back his furry best friend -- Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Using dark, forbidden magic, Sabrina is successful and Hot Dog returns to the land of the living. But he's not the same... and soon, the darkness he brings back with him from beyond the grave begins to spread, forcing Archie, Betty, Veronica and the gang to try to escape from Riverdale!
