Archie Comics has announced that its cult classic 90s miniseries Jughead’s Time Police is set for a revival this June as writer Sina Grace (Adventure Time) and artist Derek Charm (Jughead) take Jughead on a journey through time to right a food-related wrong that quickly leads to a battle for the timestream itself.
“Jughead’s Time Police is a beloved concept that was screaming to be modernized, so once we read Sina’s pitch, we knew we were in business,” said Archie Comics Co-President Alex Segura. “He honors what came before but gives the idea a much-needed jolt. I can’t think of a better artist to bring it to life than Derek, who had a stellar run on the main Jughead title — which kind of feels like a warmup for this!”

Jughead’s Time Police #1 will go on sale in June.
