One from Hell and the other from Earth. Who will win?
“Bringing Sabrina and her family and friends to life on the screen for Netflix was a dark dream come true, and I couldn’t be prouder of our four seasons, but it all started with a comic book series that was truly a labor of love for everyone who worked on it,” Aguirre-Sacasa told in a news release. “Reuniting with Robert Hack and the entire Archie Comics team and getting to pick up where we left off has been the best homecoming I could have ever asked for,” he added.
Later this year, Aguirre-Sacasa will proceed with Sabrina’s spooky journey with another comic book series, titled “The Occult World of Sabrina,” the story will pick up from where the Netflix show finale left off. The series will also feature art by Audrey Mok and include characters and plot lines from the Netflix series, as readers follow Sabrina, Nick, Harvey, and all the members of the Fright Club in the first story titled “A World Without Sabrina.”
Archie Comics CEO and Publisher Jon Goldwater stated that “Roberto coming back to the comics fold is such a special thing to experience, he’s done a remarkable job of creating fresh, new and captivating stories across ‘Riverdale,’ ‘Sabrina,’ and ‘Katy Keene.’ He steps right back into his comics sweet spot, and the world he has created is truly amazing.”
Sabrina’s story will continue in the new comic series, which will hit stands on October 13, 2021.
