This was a lot of fun. Like Mark Waid's Archie, it updates the character to modern times while still maintaining the core of the character. It had a bit of a Buffy feel to it, from her high school days. The dialogue was crisp and the mystery interesting. Veronica Fish's art was perfect. Hopefully we'll be seeing more of Sabrina in the future.
I used to watch quite a bit of Sabrina growing up and honestly I didn't realize how much a role that she played in the Archie universe. I decided to read a little bit more about her backgroud/origin through comics and this did not disappoint. I've been hearing quite a bit about Kelly Thompson so I was excited to see that she wrote this story. It focuses on Sabrina as she starts at a new high school and has to figure out how to balance being a witch and just a typical teenage. When weird things s...
Out of the five volumes, I liked volume four the most. It felt like something was actually happening and it was the start of "magical girl Sabrina", as I'm choosing to call it.Volume five wasn't bad either, even though the bad guy was defeated easily. The other three were okay, not like the other comics and not like the show(s). Also Ren > Harvey. WHY DIDN'T WE GET REN INSTEAD OF NICK SCRATCH IN THE SERIES? Missed opportunity right there.The art style is the best part of this, of course. It's pe...
4.5 starsThis was fun! It had a bit of a slow start but then picked up later on.Salem is a national treasure and I love Sabrina here, also...the art style is gorgeous? The facial expressions are HILARIOUS and as an artist myself this is peak comic art and I love this way more than those same face (and Artstyle) Marvel/DC comics. Only thing I didn’t like was the love triangle and girl on girl hate in the beginning (which gets softened pretty quick tho, so I hope there will be some development in
I think a lot of people who grew up reading the original comics or watched the '90s tv show as kids were turned off by the very dark adult version of the character, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, when it popped up. I liked it a lot, but not everyone was jumping up and down for more.This one, however? I think Thompson hit on a nice happy medium. A rebooted modern version that doesn't include cannibalism or incest. <--it can only go up from there, right?This was a genuinely sweet story, but it di...
4.5 stars for the art ALONEI consider myself a decent Sabrina fan: read the comics (original and reboot), watched the 90s sitcom and animated cartoon, and there was a time where all the books I consumed were about witches and magic. I would have watched the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina show except the geniuses at Netflix decided to cancel it. Thanks a bunch, y'all. #JusticeforMirandaOtto #AndEowynSo when I heard about a modern retelling of Sabrina (she has a smartphone AND broomstick!!!), I wa...
Things always begin small, Sabrina. I vaguely remember watching Sabrina, The Teenage Witch back in the 1990s on Channel 7, T.G.I.F. Must be because it was after Family Matters, which was my favorite show for awhile. There's her teacher, Professor Sampson, Radha and Ren Kinkle; best friend, Jessa Chiang...Here's a new adventure with Sabrina Spellman struggling to balance her academic with her personal life. This ends in a cliffhanger!
SUPER FAST REVIEW:Yay, an Archie comic published comic I didn’t dislike! Okay now don’t get too excited, this doesn’t mean I was a fan either!So I will say I absolutely LOVE the artwork! Seriously, this style is so fun and cartoony, it is absolutely wonderful!Salem (referring to the cat) is great in this comic and I was pleasantly surprised by the story’s unpredictability.Okay, it’s not all good. I honestly didn’t care about the non-cat characters. The dialogue, while fortunately not falling int...
✧ Pretty fun take on Sabrina that didn't try to be dark and, instead, was pretty adventurous.✧ The art was beautiful!✧ The side characters were also pretty interesting and I really liked Radka.✧ The arc surrounding the creatures was also pretty well developed in 5 issues and I liked the resolution.✧ Not a fan of the love triangle lol
“I’m getting whiplash from moving so quickly from horror to mean girls to hot teenage fantasy.”This wonderfully illustrated and light-hearted read had a bit of everything to suit a wide variety of readers: action, mystery, teenage drama and of course, romance.This was a great introduction to Sabrina as a modern teenager. She was powerful yet self-conscious, charming yet feisty. It was pretty much impossible to not like her, as Harvey and Ren both quickly discovered. The love triangle storyline f...
This is not the Sabrina I grew up with, but its an acceptable version compared to that godawful Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Vol. 1: The Crucible book I had the misfortune to read a while back. A tidy little magical adventure with a main character who seems real enough despite all the witch stuff.Tucked in the back is the first issue of Archie by Nick Spencer Vol. 2: Archie & Sabrina, and that was just a dreary soap opera affair. Definitely skipping that book.
New to Greendale, Sabrina Spellman runs afoul of twin enemies: a supernatural menace and teenage drama.I read a ton of Archie comics as a kid but only a handful of Sabrina stories. My main exposure to Sabrina was that television show starring Melissa Joan Hart about a thousand years ago. I saw some comics pro, I forget which one, say this was one of the best comics of 2019 so I picked it up when the Archie website was having a sale.I don't know about best comic of 2019 but this is damn good. Kel...
Feels like classic Sabrina!Tired of the dark and demonic Netflix Sabrina the teenage witch series? Well here’s a fun take on Sabrina that feels like the old 90s tv show with a mix of “real” magiks. Sabrina is living with her two aunts and talking cat Salem. As if starting a new school wasn’t hard enough, evil creatures start to emerge from the nearby woods. I really liked this series, for it being young adult it doesn’t feel kiddie. The art and colors are amazing and I really liked the character...
whoops, i realized halfway through that i meant to read chilling adventures of sabrina rather than this one. but i'm not mad about it, because this is a super cute comic!!the adventure is engaging (sabrina's new classmates may be turning into monsters!!) and there's some cute teenagery friendship and romance. the art is a classic comic style, yet feels freshly magical and is very pretty. i haven't read any other sabrina or archie comics, but this seems like a really nice modern blend between the...
Sabrina is one of my favorite things in the world. I have so much childhood nostalgia. I loved these comics growing up too. It brings me so much joy to see a revamp of Sabrina. Even though it’s different, I still get the 90s vibes and am loving it so much. This is a super fun and fast read I can’t recc enough to anyone who loves Sabrina.
This was cute, fun, and probably not really for me LOL. I think Kelly Thompson is a very talented writer. She has a lot of good voices for multiple characters. I also think Sabrina is a character that can work in any decade, she's charming, sweet, and badass. So Kelly decides to update her, make it more modern, more school problems as always, while also dealing with the wicked magical side of the world. This creates a fun, sometimes dangerous, but also witchy experience. If you're a fan of Sabri...
I think I might be falling under the spell of Sabrina Spellman. Enough to maybe read some of her original Archie comics from the sixties, despite review warnings of how sexist and dated they are.'Sabrina the Teenage Witch' in 2019, as penned by Kelly Thompson, she of the usually mixed quality bag, isn't about Satanism, or anything particularly dark or "adult", or particularly light and fluffy for that matter. I'll just say that if you like witches, and you feel nostalgic for Sabrina in any one o...
4.5This reminded me of the Melissa Joan Hart version of Sabrina in many ways, (a good thing!) but it was also different enough that it felt fresh and original. A month or two ago I read Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, then watched the show -- I loved both, and really enjoy the darker take on Sabrina, but I have to say I really appreciated the lightness of this, the bright artwork with lots of colour, especially pinks and purples. This Sabrina is funny and a little awkward -- I liked her a lot.
So mind numbingly bland, no real darkness to speak of.
"And if you want to fight a witch… Let me give you some advice… Don’t drag her into the woods… ‘cuz you just gave me home-field advantage, dummy."Sabrina the Teenage Witch was my childhood. It makes me fondly remember the ‘90s. The weekend didn’t start until TGIF on ABC. We would rush to do our homework and then gather around the tv to watch Boy Meets World, Family Matters, and Sabrina the Teenage Witch. It was perfect and I miss those days. So I’m glad that Sabrina is still around to bring gene...
