New York, NY (September 14, 2011) KISS is coming to Riverdale! Yes, the Rock
Band KISS! The coolest team-up ever, and the last cross-over you would ever
expect! In a story so wild, so over the top that it could only happen in
Riverdale, with a little help from everyone's favorite teen-aged witch.
For over four decades, from their black and white face makeup to their
iconic sound, KISS is the most recognizable Rock 'N Roll band in the world!
They have had 37 hit albums, plus appearances at Super Bowl XXXIII, the 2002
Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, the 2005 "Rockin' The Corps" concert
dedicated to the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, and most recently, the 2009
American Idols Finale before thirty million viewers. The KISS legacy
continues to grow, generation after generation, transcending age, race and
creed. KISS has been everywhere and done everything, except they have never
visited Riverdale …
*Until now**!*
Riverdale has been the home of Archie Andrews and his pals, America's most
beloved teenagers, for 70 years; always showing the world the best of the
American high school experience. The biggest, chart-topping Top 40 bubblegum
bands have hailed from Riverdale, too; including the Archies, Josie & the
Pussycats and the Bingos.
Now the most incredible musical get-together that was bound to happen – will
happen! This winter Gene Simmons meets Archie Andrews, Paul Stanley meets
Betty & Veronica, Tommy Thayer meets Jughead and Eric Singer meets Reggie as
Archie and friends meet KISS!
It's an amazing four part mini-series in ARCHIE #627 – #630 as the Monsters
of Rock help the kids save the town from the monsters of Riverdale when one
of Sabrina's spells goes awry! The Archie gang and KISS join forces to save
the day. It's an adventure full of fun, humor and – of course – Rock 'N
Roll; a story that's certain to appeal to Archie and KISS fans alike!
