Como Se Dice Archie Comics?

Since they are typically more geared toward children or adolescents, learning Spanish through Cartoons or Comic books in this case, can make things seem less intimidating. Newsarama reported this week that these Spanish translated Archie comic books would be available online in digital format at ArchieDigital.com 

This comic book is definitely a classic and it was noted that the first batch to be released in Spanish would come from the more recent 2009 series of books. The pictures in a comic book are tied together to tell a story. In most cases you can gain enough information from context to guide you through what the characters are saying, even if it is in a language that is foreign to you. However, if you are taking formal classes to guide you with your grammar and vocabulary development, then it can help you zoom through the more simplistic text, that is provided with a highly illustrated comic like these. 

Who knows, perhaps you already read these editions in English. This could be considered a form cheating, but I won't tell anyone as long as you are solidifying your Spanish knowledge through some good old fashioned reading. I just can't wait to see how Jughead translates.
