Will Archie become the longest running title ever

I'm a goldenage M L J collector. I like M L J because they have the most violent super heroes: The Comet; The Hangman; Black Hood. And the hottest girls: Betty & Veronica; Suzie. And the funniest guys: Archie & Jughead. The only current comics I buy are Archie titles so I really don't have a lot to look forward to on wedensdays. Usualy I get one new comic a week. There are only six current Archie series titles.

I have a box at Things From Another World and they have a monthly news letter. What I read in it today blew my mind. I just read that D.C. will be renumbering all their comics. Do you know what this means to me? I'll tell you.

Out of the three titles that have survived since the goldenage: Detective; Batman; Archie ( Action stopped in '86 & started again in '87). Archie is set to stand alone as the only comic that has survived since it's inception in the 1940's.

This is a great day for me. I never thought in my wildest dreams that D.C. would reboot Detective Comics. To be honest I think it's scacrilage. I didn't have a problem with Archie being second to Batman. That's pretty good company to be in. But I'll take it. As of 9/7/2011 Archie will be the sole survivor of the goldenage of comic books.

Archie is now poised to be the only comic in the history of the world to have honestly earned it's 1000th issue. This is a glorious day for this M L J fanboy.

All I can do now is pray. Pray that the folks at Archie comics don't do anything stupid like rebooting Archie and pray I live long enough to buy Archie 1000 from my local comic shop.

If my calculations are correct it should be somewhere around the year 2042. I will be 74.
