Remember back in July 2015 when Archie Comics hinted at a new horror title starring a vampiric version of Veronica Lodge? Earlier today, Archie Comics announced that they will finally be publishing a new ongoing comic book title under its Archie Horror line of comics titled VAMPIRONICA.
VAMPIRONICA will feature writing by Greg & Megan Smallwood, artwork by Greg Smallwood, and lettering by Jack Morelli. The concept is about as simple as JUGHEAD: THE HUNGER, except that instead of Jughead being a murderous werewolf, Veronica will be a murderous vampire.
VAMPIRONICA will be published in March 2018.
Incidentally, this promo article really annoyed me with its initial paragraph:

Incidentally, this promo article really annoyed me with its initial paragraph:
Between Afterlife with Archie, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and the recent addition of Jughead: The Hunger, Archie Comics’ horror imprint is flying higher than Sabrina’s broomstick ever thought possible. But there’s already another series coming to Archie Horror, and it’s got a bit of a bite to it.Both AFTERLIFE WITH ARCHIE and CHILLING ADVENTURES OF SABRINA have suffered from chronic and extensive publishing delays. It really aggravates me when Archie Comics promotes these otherwise wonderful comics when they as a company cannot get it together enough to publish these titles on a regular basis.
