Oni Press has revealed the striking “Pyre Satanic” variant cover for Archie in Hell #1, illustrated by acclaimed artist Chloe Brailsford (Lobo, The Deadman), multiple Eisner Award nominee Patrick Horvath (Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees) and Russ Manning Award winner Tyler Crook (Out of Alcatraz, Harrow County). Arriving in comic shops on November 4, this high-octane launch marks a bold, sinister chapter for Riverdale’s iconic characters.

Completing the Unholy Trinity

Brailsford’s special open-order cover design connects directly with her previously revealed “Pyre Satanic” covers for Archie #1 and Sabrina the Teenage Witch #1. Together, they form an epic, interconnected visual set. Retailers and fans looking to secure this stunning piece must submit their orders by the Final Order Cut-Off on September 28. The cover will hit shelves alongside all previously announced variants on November 4.

A Diabolical Ritual Gone Wrong

The issue exposes a terrifying secret lurking beneath Riverdale’s wholesome surface. An ancient has spent a century preparing a human sacrifice to summon a demon lord into the mortal realm. They have chosen hometown hero Archie Andrews as their final key. An unexpected clash erupts between the cult and Riverdale’s secret coven of witches during the ritual. The resulting cosmic disaster damns Archie to a fate far worse than the deepest depths of the underworld.

The Most Merciless Archie Tale Yet

Unstuck from time and space while bound to an ancient curse, Archie must navigate an unprecedented nightmare. One where the stakes couldn’t be higher. Horvath and Crook are pushing the boundaries of dark fantasy to deliver the most thrilling, unpredictable, and malevolently creative Archie story ever told. Fans can expect a relentless, genre-bending ride that redefines what a horror comic can be.
