• Rise of the Black Panther — This is the best introduction to the King of Wakanda that you can read right now.
• Archie — Of course, if you’re digging Riverdale like we are, you can pick up the series set in the world of the TV show, but it’s also fun to remember how wholesome Archie, Betty, Veronica and Jughead were before they turned into angsty, horny millennials.
