The series sees the Riverdale gang – Archie, Jughead, Betty, Veronica, and others – vacationing in Costa Rica for Spring Break, where they encounter the Predator.
“After Betty is revealed to be borrowing Cheryl Blossom’s clothes to compete, she and Veronica have a fight and she tearfully runs off into the jungle where, let’s say, she isn’t alone,” de Campi says.
De Campi hints that when the gang leaves Costa Rica, they’ll have a little extra luggage.
“Everybody does end up back in Riverdale,” she says, “as do those big trunks of clothes that Veronica brought. Trunks so big, you could hide a Predator in them. Her Vuitton will never quite smell the same again.”
Archie Meets Predator will hit stands in spring 2015.
