EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW: Meet The Valentine Trio In ‘Archie’s Valentine’s Spectacular’

Nobody has to tell Archie that love can be complicated. He’s well aware, but in writer Jamie L. Rotante and artist Holly G!‘s story for Archie’s Valentine’s Spectacular, Hearts and Flowers — new characters you’ll meet below — are eager to show off all the love Riverdale has to offer and paint the town in a positive light.

The tale reunites Rotante and G!, with the former saying, “I’m so excited to team up with Holly G! once again, especially again for Valentine’s Day! There might not be a more important holiday, since Riverdale is the romance capital of the world! It was especially fun to play with our fun new spirits characters, Hearts, Flowers, and Candies. Come for the romance and chocolate, stay for all the cameos!”

With inks by Jim Amash, colors by Glenn Whitmore, and letters by Jack Morelli, find out who Hearts, Flowers, and (a conspicuously absent) Candies are below, and check out an exclusive preview of “Riverdale Is Where The Heart Is!” from Archie’s Valentine’s Spectacular:
