Details are coming out about Girls creator Lena Dunham’s upcoming Archie Comics project, announced last night but buried deep in a New York Times article about the hiring of screenwriter and Dunham friend Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa as Archie’s new Chief Creative Officer.The four-issue miniseries, due out in 2015, will apparently focus on the girls of Riverdale–perhaps not surprising, considering the recent focus on Betty and Veronica as drivers of surprising story developments.”Everyone at Archie is thrilled Lena’s coming aboard to write this story, and I can tell you, it’s going to be fantastic,” Aguirre-Sacasa said in a statement. “Lena’s take on the Archie gang is funny and real and contemporary. It’s a stunning fit, and I know fans will be excited to read it. I am!”
