Archie #666 will end a comic book run of over 70 years. The issue will feature six interlocking covers by Parent, showcasing the different incarnations of the Riverdale gang that have appeared in the series’ pages over the years. You can see one of the covers above, and early sketches of the other five in the gallery below.

The end of the current Archie makes way for this summer’s reboot in a new Archie #1, where writer Mark Waid and artist Fiona Staples will recreate Archie‘s classic characters for a new generation.

Archie #666 goes on sale June 3.
