ARCHIE ANOUNCES "CIVIL CHORE"
Press Release
From the pages of Marvel Comic’s Civil War to DC’s World War III, the comics community has been facing strife and conflict, turning brothers against each other, and friends against friends. The fever pitch of war has hit Riverdale High as Archie and Jughead turn against each other in “CIVIL CHORE!” Archie Comics takes its look at the divisions that shake the foundation for the comics community and we ask our loyal readers…
WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON!
It all begins when Archie complains to his Father that he needs a raise in his allowance for all the chores he does. Archie’s Father, tells him facetiously if he doesn't like it to go on strike. Archie decides to follow his Father’s advice, and begins marching around his yard with a strike sign demanding an allowance increase. As the other kids from the neighborhood pass by they join up with Archie. All the kids in town are in favor of the strike until Jughead sees what's going on! Jughead quickly realizes two things; first, while Archie is on strike he's not making any money so Jughead can't borrow any for his hamburger habit and two if he does get more money, he can afford to make dates with Betty & Veronica on the same night causing more times Jughead has to help get Archie out of trouble. So, Jughead starts striking AGAINST the kids want a raise in their allowances. When Veronica finds out what's going on she also joins Jughead's side realizing that if Betty gets an increase in her allowance Betty will be able to buy nicer clothes or even treat Archie to dates. This would take away from Veronica's time with Archie. These events lead to a deep division between the kids at Riverdale High, as everyone chooses a side. WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON!
Tales From Riverdale Digest #22, Ships this July
“CIVIL CHORE!” plot by Nelson Ribeiro, Story and Art by Fernando Ruiz

I'm with Jughead and Betty...
But not Archie and Veronica...
Why am I more conflicted over this then I am over Civil War?

Jughead should steal Archie's jalopy and sell it for scraps.
Or get Dilton Doiley to clone Moose.

Jughead > Archie
Veronica > Betty
It's obvious what side I'm on.
I can't wait until Archie has Betty and Dilton clone the recently deceased Big Moose who accidentally kills one of the anti strikers. It'll probably be Chuck...
Edit for UnknownEric: Chuck IS the black kid in Riverdale. Oh how sad it is that I assumed everyone knew that from their childhood days.

The real question is...will the Punisher return to Riverdale and shoot up a bunch of the pro Strike kids?

I think the Punisher returns to the Archieverse in issue#4--he will save moose from near death and Archie will ask him to join his fight(the other's won't like it though)

Screw Archie, he's living in his father's house rent free, he doesn't need more money to support his weed habit and his dead beat friends!

the genius thing here?
this whole story will be started and wrapped up in probably 16 pages or less and come out on time, with no last minute additions/ cease fire issues etc.
theres no MIDGE: Choosing Sides Oneshot
no Riverdale: the LODGE Initiative
no tales of Sabrina and how she doesnt do anything in the civil chore because the archie folk cant write magic users...
Kudos to the archie folk for at least making us aware of this sorta stuff- i'll never buy it- and it not being out till JULY??? means i'll have forgotten about it totally? but it made me laugh.

Archie's getting on the CW parody bandwagon?
Just goes to show how far Marvel's influence reaches....Archie might be poking fun at Civil War, but this is also a surefire way to increase sales for a month.

Yeah, Chuck is dead.
If not him at least his dad or girlfriend.
Also,
There is no way that Veronica is better then Betty.
As someone who always has love for the underdog I can't understand how Jughead can stand against Betty on this issue.
The fact that he is siding with Veronica is against everything he has ever stood for.
BUT, we'll all know who is truly evil once we see what side Reggie falls to.
Because that son of a bitch is the devil.

Maybe Archie can tell us if that prison in the Negative Zone is permanent or not - if anyone knows for sure, it's Archie.

No, he loves hot dogs. It's a subtle, but crucial, difference.

Reggie has probably imported a van full of illegal immigrants to do everyone's chores, making him rich and the conflict redundant.
