Archie’s first openly gay character Kevin Keller will receive receiving his own run in a four-issue spin-off this June.
Kevin was introduced as a new student at Archie’s fictional Riverdale High in Veronica #202, and his instant popularity with fans led to that sold-out comic becoming the first in the publisher’s history to go into a second printing.
According to creator Dan Parent, the mini-series will explore Kevin’s background and story before he arrived in Riverdale.
“We learn about Kevin’s travels as an Army brat with a high-ranking father and his family’s acceptance of him coming out as gay. Told in flashbacks, the series shows Kevin’s struggles and triumphs through middle and high school,” reports Archie Comics.
Kevin’s debut in the Veronica issue earned a GLAAD Media Award nomination for Outstanding Comic Book this year.
Kevin is also featured in the current Veronica, issue #205.
