The Next Sabrina Arrives as Archie Resurrects a Horror Icon
A new horror anthology is coming from Archie Comics, bringing back a classic character in a fresh take similar to its recent reinvention of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Chilling Adventures Presents: Jinx's Grim Fairy Tales will be the latest Archie Horror comic, kicking off the imprint's season of chills and thrills. Fans will get to begin their creep fests early, with this title coming just before Fall begins.
Jinx Holliday made her debut in 1947 and she has appeared sporadically in different Archie comics ever since. She was also the heroine of her own series, Li'l Jinx, and returned in graphic novels back in 2012 and 2013. More recently, in the 2019 miniseries, Jughead the Hunger vs. Vampironica, she made her way into the horror canon of Archie Comics, becoming the daughter of Satan. Now she will be given a new role in this upcoming anthology.
