IMAGE: Preview of the Ground Breaking Archie Comic’s New Gay Character Kevin

Here it is folks! Archie Comics just posted the cover for their groundbreaking new character in the “Archie-verse” Kevin Keller, and he’s dreamy.

The comic will be for sale in September and features a storyline where Kevin Keller, the new kid in town, comes out to Jughead, and is chased by Veronica. Typical Archie.

From the Archie Comics Blog:

VERONICA #202 features the full-issue story, “Isn’t it Bromantic?” that introduces Kevin, Archie Comics’ first openly gay character. Kevin Keller is the new hunk in town and Veronica just has to have him. After Kevin defeats Jughead in a burger eating contest at Pop’s Chocklit Shoppe, she desperately latches onto him. Mayhem and hilarity ensue as Kevin desperately attempts to let Veronica down easy and her flirtations only become increasingly persistent.
