We are a little over two weeks away from the release of DaredevilSeason 3. To hold us over, Netflix has released a full-length trailer for the highly-anticipated show.
The footage ramps up the intense battle between Wilson Fisk and Matthew Murdock. The Man Without Fear will be facing his toughest test as the Kingpin is released from prison and is seeking vengeance. You can check out the trailer below:
The biggest takeaway from the trailer is the fact that there is a Daredevil imposter on the loose. It’s a safe bet to say that this mysterious figure is Bullseye, who is set to appear this season. Wilson Bethel will portray the iconic villain. Bethel is not a household name but has appeared in numerous TV series, including Bates Motel, How to Get Away with Murder, and Criminal Minds.
Plot details surrounding Daredevil Season 3 have been few and far between. It’s rumored to be following the iconic Born Again storyline, which sees Matt Murdock’s identity revealed to the world. This season will see the return of Vincent D’onofrio’s Wilson Fisk, who plays an integral role in Born Again.
To accompany the trailer, a bevy of HD images for the series hit the web. They include Matt in his Season One attire, Wilson Fisk in prison and more! Check them out below:
Here is the synopsis for the upcoming Netflix series:
Missing for months, Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) reemerges a broken man, putting into question his future as both vigilante Daredevil and lawyer Matthew Murdock. But when his archenemy Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) is released from prison, Matt must choose between hiding from the world or embracing his destiny as a hero. Marvel’s Daredevil season three premieres worldwide October 19 on Netflix.

Robin Hood starring Taron Egerton returns with a final trailer which shows off plenty of action, jokes, and Jamie Fox. The trailer hits a bullseye when it comes to teasing bits of the frantic set-pieces that Robin and his friends will face. Robin Hood hits theaters November 21, 2018.
About Robin Hood
Official Description: A war-hardened Crusader and his Moorish commander mount an audacious revolt against the corrupt English crown in a thrilling action-adventure packed with gritty battlefield exploits, mind-blowing fight choreography, and a timeless romance.
The trailer forRobin Hood fires a volley of action that doesn’t stop falling for the entire one-minute runtime. Director Otto Bathurst (epic name), who directed the first ever episode of Black Mirror, looks to be bringing a fun vibe to the prince of thieves. Jamie Foxx plays Little John, Robin Hood’s BFF alongside Eve Hewson as love-interest Maid Marian. From the looks of things, this updated version of Robin Hood is a part ninja, likely inspired some by Assassin’s Creed and Arrow.

Roughly every 10 years there’s a major Robin Hood reboot, and so it was about time the master marksman made a return. Unfortunately, they made him look a little too much like Green Arrow from the CW, right? It appears the film is taking the joke-infested action film route which is often more irritating than entertaining. The action looks fun, though, and it’ll be interesting to see what Jamie Foxx gets to do here. Also, Ben Mendelsohn as the villain sounds pretty awesome too.

Warner Bros. Wednesday night released the first teaser to the DC Universe series Harley Quinn, and boy does she have jokes (Deadpool should be afraid). In the 53-second teaser, the show takes jabs at Deadpool, nerd rage, and the DC Cinematic Universe. That must have been a tough pill for some Warner Bros. executives to swallow.
Warner Bros. also announced Kaley Cuoco would voice the title character and the show would feature the voice talents of Lake Bell, Alan Tudyk, Ron Funches, JB Smoove, Jason Alexander, Wanda Sykes, Giancarlo Esposito, Natalie Morales, Jim Rash, Diedrich Bader, Tony Hale, and Chris Meloni.
No release date was announced at this time.

Voltron: Legendary Defender is coming to an end with season eight, but a few cast members would like to see a Shiro led Galaxy Garrison spin-off.
At MegaCon Tampa, we spoke with Josh Keaton the voice of Shiro and asked him if he would like to see a spin-off show with Shiro.
“I want this to happen, Dreamworks make it happen. We need a Galaxy Garrison spin-off. I mean we got the Atlas now. We got Captain Shiro and the Galaxy Garrison now. Earth is kind of like the hub it seems for the coalition. I feel like there’s so much more story that can still be told,” said Keaton.
Josh Keaton Talks Final Season Of VOLTRON: LEGENDARY DEFENDER
The voice of Allura, Kimberly Brooks also chimed in with her thoughts on a Galaxy Garrison series.
“That would be amazing, maybe Allura could show up every once and a while and save a few lives, repair a few arms. I’m sure Shiro will need Allura because she’s saved him quite a few times,” said Brooks.
VOLTRON Final Season, It Was Very Emotional For Kimberly Brooks (Allura)
In the videos, you can see the excitement in the voice actors talking about a spin-off. Keaton and Brooks love the passion from the fanbase and realize how powerfully important Shiro and Allura are as role models. A Galaxy Garrison series could only expand on the legacy of Voltron and possibly introduce a whole new set powerful role models. It is understandable if Dreamworks and Netflix want to go out on a high note, but the universe is infinite, and new threats could be found for Admiral Shiro and his crew of the Atlas to defend against.
The Keaton interview is the most liked and commented on video in Monkeys Fighting Robots history, and by the end of the week will be the most viewed as well. All of the comments are overwhelmingly positive and are in favor of a Shiro spin-off. A surprising statistic to this writer was the viewing audience of the interview is 90% female. This stat confirms the support a show will receive if it has a well written, strong female lead.

Based on a fan-favorite villain that wasn’t exactly clamoring for his own movie, Venom is the story of Eddie Brock, a reporter that gets infected by the Symbiote, an alien organism that bonds with its host and gives him or her superhuman powers.
How does one go about making a film featuring Spider-Man’s most famous antagonist? Without Spider-Man, of course! One of the most significant problems with this movie is that it exists in that awkward limbo where it is theoretically set in the same universe as the MCU, but doesn’t acknowledge Peter Parker. With this, the film loses the individuality it could have exhibited with an R-rating, as it had to be kept tween-safe for potential crossovers in the future. After all, you can’t have your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man in the same movie as someone being graphically decapitated.
The film also suffers from trying too hard to succeed. The movie really can’t be accused of lazy writing because it legitimately wants to be a crowd-pleaser. However, much of the film is so desperate to be “cool” that it comes across as fake. There were quite a few elements in the movie that showed potential and even some scenes that hinted at a much better film, but these were scattered throughout the rest of the material that was often cringe-worthy.
Many scenes aren’t necessary and end up being laughably bad. For example, early in the film, there is a montage in which Brock rides around San Francisco on a motorcycle as rap music plays. This seems to be an attempt at making the character look like a “bad boy,” but in actuality, does nothing for the character. There are multiple scenes like this throughout the movie that have an apparent intention but don’t achieve their purpose.
Parts of the dialogue are baffling, too. Luckily, many of the worst lines of the film were included in the trailer, but there are also a few more in store. As a result of the testosterone-fueled, cheese-filled script, the movie almost veers into “so bad it’s good” territory, making the film much more fun than it should be.
Some of the supporting characters felt utterly wasted. Michelle Williams, who is a typically wonderful actress, was relegated to being a simple love interest. Her character is only given one or two powerful scenes, otherwise being disappointingly flat. The antagonist starts out strong but quickly devolves into a generic corporate jerk. Jenny Slate’s character arc seemed like it was going to be building to something, but didn’t pay off.
That being said, some elements work quite well. The relationship that develops between Brock and the Symbiote is fun and exciting to watch. It’s a combination of buddy comedy and Cronenbergian body horror, which is a surprisingly good mix. Towards the end of the second act, the story transitions into more average superhero fare which is far more generic. Additionally, a few scenes capture the overall tone of the comics well, although purists may be a little disappointed by some of the liberties the film takes.
Hardy’s performance isn’t bad, either. He’s a little over-the-top at times, and his accent dropped out every once in a while, but for the most part, he was solid. He did the dual character justice, much like his turn in the 2015 film Legend. Riz Ahmed is interesting as the antagonist, Drake, doing the best he can with what he was given.
Visually, the film is pretty rough. The composition doesn’t follow many of the basic rules, therefore not being aesthetically pleasing. The CGI has a few decent moments, but the big scenes are noticeably lackluster. However, these scenes often also contained some impressive practical effects.
The movie’s sound mixing is of rather high quality. The score by Ludwig Gōransson is a little generic but serves its purpose. On the other hand, the soundtrack doesn’t do the film any favors. The songs are good on their own, including the title track by Eminem, but don’t always fit the action happening on screen.
As a whole, Venom wasn’t unwatchable, but it wasn’t what it could have been. The bones are there— it just seems like this may be another case of 2015’s Fantastic Four where it started in one direction, but ended up going another way in post-production. The end sets up the film for a sequel, so only time will tell if future entries will be better.
Venom opens in theaters everywhere October 5. Comment once you see the film! Did you feel the same way, or were you more impressed?
When we last finished off on Part 1 of the Brave Raideen review, we saw a show which had innovative ideas, solid potential, and every so often delivered these aspects. Yet most of the time, didn’t because it couldn’t decide if it wanted to serious or comedic. Will this change, or will it be “second verse same as the first?”
Episode 14 starts off like a mini bottle episode with our leads in a giant cave, as Raideen suffered an injury which prevents it from fighting. We find out Raideen is made of Mutronium, which is like adamantium, because it’s this impenetrable element without an explanation where it came from.
As I’ve said time and again, the only legitimately good part of the show.
Episode 15 establishes a unique plot twist which is never followed up on any of the subsequent episodes. Raideen is vulnerable to diamond, as evidenced by the beating it takes at the hands of a monster with diamond appendages. Does the Demon Empire take advantage of this obvious flaw in the next episode? Of course not, this is a Saturday morning cartoon show, so the enemy doesn’t learn from their mistakes.
This brings up a relevant point. For a major threat, the Demon Empire, is a complete non-threat. General Agayo is one of the most ineffective Generals in narrative fiction. The only reasons I can assume he still has a job is because he’s blackmailing Prince Sharkin over something, or this is a Wayne Fontes situation, where he sucks at his job, and coasts on decent talent, but magically pulls something out of hammer space and still has a job. We’ll get back to this, trust me.
Really, General Aguyo? You’re surprised you failed? You fail almost every show.
Episode 16 has another unique idea: a ticking clock plot involving a cruise ship and bomb planted on the ship. If this sounds familiar you’ve seen Speed 2: Cruise Control. It’s not as derivative but it’s one of those episodes focusing on the comic relief. This is terrible for many of reasons. I don’t like kids, I don’t like comic relief, and I sure don’t like them together. It comes off to me as pleasant as a car alarm blaring into an eardrum. So naturally, I found them insufferable. It doesn’t mean there weren’t kid characters I liked in the series. I’ve kept track. There are two sick girl characters, both had surprisingly sweet single episode arcs, and I enjoyed those despite how blatant the manipulation is.
Episode 17 continued a downward slide. It starts off with Prince Sharkin telling General Agayo he has no more tolerance for failures (if this were the case, Agayo would have been dead by episode 6), and Agayo gets another chance. He gets his own giant monster, he fails yet again, and is seen escaping in his escape pod cursing out Raideen like a Saturday morning cartoon. This episode also introduces a girl character, Atchan, who unlike the rest of the comic relief isn’t annoying. Why isn’t she annoying? Simple, she is relevant to the plot later. Plus, she has a pet lizard, even if the lizard resembles the king lizard from the old Sesame Street cartoons.
Surprisingly, the idiotic plan of hiding in plain sight, is so effective it worked. Even the moronic comic relief is surprised.
Episode 18 is the episode we see hope and gives this series justification. Prince Sharkin is berating Agayo for his failures and tells him this is this true last chance. So, he does the thing we all do, beg for mercy from the opposing side. This plan is so stupid, it works, Agayo infiltrates Raideen’s base, but can’t complete the coup de grace, and dies at Raideen’s hands.
In these episodes, I’ve noticed a kind of seriousness emerging in the background. The series is developing Cerberus syndrome, and I’m so grateful, because when the series had serious episodes, it became legitimately great to watch. The biggest change comes regarding Akira’s injuries. In the early episodes, even though Raideen is being attacked, he is never hurt. Around episode 9, with the concussion subplot, and continuing in the background, the hits to Raideen, now appear to hurt Akira. You may say it’s a little thing, yet I’ve always believed the sum of trivial things make the larger things possible. So, when the Cerberus Syndrome emerged in the forefront in Episode 18, with Agayo’s death, you could see it coming, for the most part.
You know, there are some days when I love this job. This is one of them. Brave Raideen eats a sandwich this big!
Episode 19 is a straight riff on King Kong (specifically the 1976 Dino De Laurentiis remake, which was big at the time). A sad gorilla befriends Mari and the Demon Empire turn it into a monster. It’s quite moving, seeing Akira wail on this monster, not knowing this was the giant monkey Mari befriended (and was kidnapped by). The episode tugs at the heartstrings and it works.
Episode 20 continued this upward pattern with the introduction of Commodore Dilandou… I mean Daldon, and already Daldon did more than Agayo ever did. The monster battled Raideen for the full episode instead the 10-15 minutes in previous episodes.
Okay this shot, is admittedly really cool. I give them credit here.
Episode 21 & 22 are minor downward slopes, Episode 21 was four minutes away from continuing the upward increase of quality. Daldon has captured Raideen & Akira, ties Raideen to a St. Andrew’s Cross, and torturing him. It’s quite visceral to watch, and you can really feel Akira’s pain, until Mari comes in and tells him to survive. I swear I could feel the balloon deflate, when she interjects. The episode also introduced a robot for the comic relief to pilot and let me tell you something, there was no amount of sympathy seeing the comic relief’s robot being attacked. I am not joking. Episode 22 had an intriguing plot by Daldon. Keep Akira on watch for three straight days and tire him out, then shell the rock fortress Raideen is located, until it’s destroyed. It’s not a bad plan, except they should have kept him on watch for a whole week. He’d just fall asleep and then boom, destroy Raideen.
Episode 23 is okay, not great. The show still insists on focusing on the unfunny “comic relief” and their “robot”. Honestly, this episode proves the point I’ve been mulling over watching the series. There seems to be two different visions for the show. One team (probably Tomino’s) felt it should be a completely serious giant robot show. The other was making a Mazinger Z rip-off and decided to compromise. This could explain why some episodes (4, 10, 18-20, and most of 21) come off as great, while most of the episodes come off as tonally confused, veering between scenes of decent action, and unfunny comedy. I’d like to believe cutting out the comic relief and focusing tightly on Akira and his support team (Rei Asuka and Jinjuki) and beefing up on the pseudo-scientific elements, would have made this show a more consistent watch.
General Dilandou…I mean Daldon. (aka a Go Nagai villain)
Anyway, episode 23’s plot involves two monsters teaming up to destroy Raideen’s bird form. It doesn’t work but good plan though. Episode 24 had a freeze monster, I’m speeding through this because I’m getting tired of the series and it’s declining in quality in record time.
Episode 25, like a lot of the episodes had a great start then falls apart. It’s starts off with Akira getting blinded from an explosion caused by the Demon Empire, and he now must fight on sound alone, where he bumbles his way towards success. It also prevented something interesting happening, because Mari was going to sacrifice herself for Akira, then Gihren’s predecessor tells her to pull the emergency release hatch. The remaining investment I had in the series, plummeted to almost zero.
Well, somebody’s working through their issues.
This incidentally set the stage for the two part “finale.” I call it a finale because it ran for 26 more episodes, yet episodes 26 & 27 seemed like a suitable place to finish this train wreck. Episode 26 like the rest of the series has an intriguing concept. The monsters Akira fought came back, wreaked havoc, and were defeated in five minutes of screen time. Anti-climax, what’s that? This leads into a surprisingly good finale.
Prince Sharkin is being punished for his failures and comes to the realization he needs to turn into a giant monster to defeat Raideen. This seems to do the trick, except it doesn’t, because Sharkin’s defeated. Distraught over this failure, he commits seppuku in a tragic scene. The scene composition itself, is pure Shojo. Rain pouring, our hero crying, sitting beside the vanquished villain. Composition wise, it’s clichéd, yet perfect. This would also be the perfect way to fade to black…
This is it, the final battle, (insert your own cliche music here!)
It doesn’t, guess what happens next? Go on, I know you’ll get it right. The show immediately cut back to the kids. The perfect topper to mountain of inconsistency.
Episode 27 and the remaining 23 episodes of the series was directed by the late Tadao Nagahama. The previous episode (26) was the last directed by Tomino, he was replaced by Nagahama for unknown reasons. TV Asahi, Tohokushina, and probably Sunrise (the companies who produced the series) probably weren’t happy with the way the show was heading, with the seriousness Tomino was trying to inject and removed Tomino from the production (watching the episodes, I got the sense there were two different artistic directions who were completely at odds with each other, which reeks of production problems). The show Tomino took over after Raideen, a series called La Seine no Hoshi, a shojo series, in which he directed the final 12 episodes.
NOOOOO!!! Prince Sharkin was the only thing keeping me invested in this series!!
So, what of Brave Raideen? Simple, it’s inconsistent. You can see the building blocks of other Tomino anime in here, at least in the characterization, and every so often there will be a great episode or three. Then they focus on the annoying kids and all the momentum is flushed down the drain in an instant, it’s quite depressing. I’ve found I’m not a fan of Super Robot shows. Yet I enjoy Real Robot shows, because of the amount of effort put in the drama, and the relative realism of the mechs. Thus, Brave Raideen didn’t sell me on Super Robot shows. In short, they had the pieces of a great mech series, yet couldn’t put the puzzle pieces together to make a great final product, which you could say the same thing about the Demon Empire in the series.

Star Wars fandom is buzzing after Jon Favreau released the first official details of his upcoming live-action television series for the Disney streaming service. Leading up to the first stages of production, rumors have been surfacing regarding various directors for the series, along with several leaked photos. Not to be outdone, Favreau posted on his Instagram account The Mandalorian, along with a short synopsis.
Playing off the nostalgia of the original Star Wars trilogy, the synopsis for The Mandalorian is written like an opening crawl. Adding the crawl is a nice nod towards the Star Wars fandom, providing a “feeling” many have been asking for.
Suspicions were high regarding the Mandalorian nature of Favreau’s series, so it’s nice to have a solid confirmation. What fans weren’t expecting, however, was the “lone” gunslinger arc. It appears the live-action series created by Favreau is tapping into the same Western style fans experienced in Solo: A Star Wars Story. Which just happened to be one of the best parts in Solo.
Jon Favreau And The Mandalorian

The Mandalorian is the first Star Wars live-action television series airing on Disney’s streaming service when it launches sometime in 2019. According to Favreau, the synopsis of the show takes place, “after the stories of Jango and Boba Fett.” And the series timeline is “after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order.”
The Western “lone gunfighter” doesn’t specifically state the character will be a bounty hunter. However, it does elude to this individual being somewhat of a loose cannon (outside the law) by stating it’s in the Outer Rim “far from the authority of the New Republic.”
In addition to Favreau leaking the title and synopsis, there are rumors surrounding who will direct. Dave Filoni’s name has come up several times, along with Alan Taylor. Favreau is writing The Mandalorian but is likely to direct some of the episodes too.

Chad Bowers, Chris Sims, Todd Nauck and Rachelle Rosenberg are the dream behind the return of Marvel’s 90s beloved cult-classic Sleepwalker in INFINITY WARS: Sleepwaker.
Infinity Wars: Sleepwalker #1 Written by: Chad Bowers and Chris Sims Art by: Todd Nauck Colors by: Rachelle Rosenberg Letters by: VC’s Travis Lanham
Deep within the mind of Rick Sheridan is a mysterious being—a guardian of the Mindscape, the dimension that borders on the minds of all intelligent life. And when Rick sleeps, the being walks—into Rick’s world, where this Sleepwalker continues his noble mission to use his powers to strike fear in the hearts of Earthen evildoers everywhere
Writing
Writers Chad Bowers and Chris Sims clearly love the 90s. Bowers worked on Youngblood for Image, and the duo previously collaborated on the fun and (sadly) short-lived X-Men ’92. Now, they set their sights on Sleepwalker and their affection for the character, concept and time period easily leaps off the page. Right from the start, we get tons of 90s Marvel references; Silhouette makes an appearance and Hummingbird and the New Warriors get named dropped. It makes for some nice easter egg moments for long-time fans. They also throw in a nice new detail of Rick learning to mediate from Doctor Strange to access the Mindscape, something that is a total no-brainer.
However, strong knowledge of this history is not needed as Bowers and Sims (using a cool narrative technique of Sleepwalker’s host Rich Sheridan making a documentary on C-listers) give readers plenty of set up as to how Sleepwalker and Rick fit into the 616 universe. We do get a little exposition on the mythology of the Mindscape, but it’s done in Sleepwalker’s own words so it’s not jarring or overly cold.
But this isn’t just a Sleepwalker book, so how it ties into the current Infinity Wars event is important and on that front the book also delivers. The writers cleverly tie the realm of the Mindscape with the Mindstone, making the Sleepwalker an important player in the fight against Gamora and the Infinity Stones. It’s here that things get really fun as a couple of the Infinity Warp characters are named checked and pulled into the story; we get Man-Thing Thang Thoom (trying saying it three times!), Dark Starhawk, and the fantastic Little Monster, an Ant-Man/Hulk warp where ‘Scotty Banner’ gets smaller AND stronger as he gets angrier. Fucking fantastic.
Art
Todd Nauck was a great choice as penciler for this book. Not only is he a seasoned pro, but he also has the right mix of the cartoonish and grit a surreal title like this needs. Nauck, along with colorist Rachelle Rosenberg creates some great psychedelic images and layouts. The use of stark white for the interactions between Rick and the Sleepwalker was also a great choice; it helps cement how strong the bond between these to is by virtue of them being the only images on the panel/page. It’s a solid looking book that has a classic comic feel, yet still capitalizes on newer and slicker coloring techniques. It has a unique vibe.
Conclusion
Infinity Wars: Sleepwalker is not the regular tie-in to an event. It feels important to the larger story, yet it’s also clear the creative team wants to tell a tale of their own as well. Grab this book today.
Vice is a new film from Adam McKay and starring Christian Bale in an incredible transformation playing former United States Vice President Dick Cheney. Like Gary Oldman in Churchill, Bale’s makeup and mannerisms make the world famous actor unrecognizable. Vice is set for release on Christmas (2018).
About Vice
Official Description: The story of Dick Cheney, the most powerful Vice President in history, and how his policies changed the world as we know it.
Director Adam McKay guides the vision of Vice, doubling as screenwriter too. Vice pulsates with energy while setting up the central narrative of an ambitious man given too much power. Bale’s change from sexy leading man to pudgy douchebag is really remarkable. Along for the ride and making a transformation himself is Sam Rockwell who plays George W. Bush, and though he doesn’t have the makeup work like Bale, Rockwell blends into the role with spot-on character work as always. We love you, Sam!

Alex MacNicoli as Young Dick Cheney
Aidan Gail as Young Dick Cheney
Amy Adams as Lynne Cheney
Cailee Spaeny as Young Lynne Cheney
Karolina Kennedy Durrence as Young Lynne Cheney
Steve Carell as Donald Rumsfeld
Bill Pullman as Nelson Rockefeller
Sam Rockwell as George W. Bush

Lily Rabe as Liz Cheney
Violet Hicks as Young Liz Cheney
Stefania LaVie Owen as Joan / Narrator (voice)
Adam Bartley as Frank Luntz
LisaGay Hamilton as Condoleezza Rice
Tyler Perry as Colin Powell
Yes, that’s fat Christian Bale!
The trailer forVice is high-energy, fast-paced and wildly intriguing. The trailer’s mini-narrative is incredible work that builds around the proposition that “changed the world.”
The cast is stellar, the material is ripe with potential, and the creative team is top-notch. Vice is indeed one to keep an eye on, particularly as an Oscar contender. McKay’s blend of tempo, humor, and political commentary is rare today. Also, Bale needs an Oscar or he’ll keep gaining and losing weight for roles until we lose him forever and then we’ll never see a Newsies reboot!

Netflix dropped the official trailer to the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Wednesday morning and announced the series would hit the streaming network on October 26.
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina imagines the origin and adventures of Sabrina the Teenage Witch as a dark coming-of-age story that traffics in horror, the occult and, of course, witchcraft. Tonally in the vein of Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist, this adaptation finds Sabrina wrestling to reconcile her dual nature — half-witch, half-mortal — while standing against the evil forces that threaten her, her family and the daylight world humans inhabit.
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina stars Kiernan Shipka, Miranda Otto, Lucy Davis, Ross Lynch, Michelle Gomez, Chance Perdomo, Jaz Sinclair, Richard Coyle, Tati Gabrielle, Adeline Rudolph, Abigail Cowen, Lachlan Watson, Bronson Pinchot, and Gavin Leatherwood.
Riverdale showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, who also serves as the chief creative officer of Archie Comics, penned the script for the series.
