Exclusive News: Joe Eisma Joins JUGHEAD: THE HUNGER Team

Archie Comics has shared exclusive news with Comicosity! Archie Comics has brought artist Joe Eisma on board to work alongside Tim and Pat Kennedy on the monthly Jughead: The Hunger book.

“The response to JUGHEAD: THE HUNGER has been nothing short of amazing, and we’re already running extremely low on quantities for the first issue. We knew we had to guarantee that this book not only came out regularly, but maintained the quality of the initial one-shot and first issue,” said Archie Comics Co-President, Alex Segura.

“With that in mind, we enlisted Archie All-Star Joe Eisma, who’s supremely talented and just so versatile, as seen through his work on ARCHIE, RIVERDALE and THE ARCHIES, to join the Kennedy Bros as the regular art team for JUGHEAD: THE HUNGER. His style meshed perfectly with the story Frank is telling and the stark colors being created by Matt Herms, and allowed the Kennedy Bros to really maximize their pages. So, moving forward, Joe will be joining THE HUNGER team while still remaining the artist on THE ARCHIES. It’s a win for everyone involved—especially the readers.”

‘I’m very excited to join up for JUGHEAD: THE HUNGER! As a longtime horror fan, I’ve not had many opportunities to work in that genre, and I’m grateful to the team at Archie to finally get that chance.  Frank Tieri is crafting a super scary story that’s a hell of a lot of fun to draw!’

– Joe Eisma
