Dynamite is producing their first ever crossover enamel pins in collaboration with Archie Comics. Due for release in May to coincide with the launch of the bombastic Red Sonja and Vampirella Meet Betty and Veronica crossover, the four limited edition pins feature the eponymous stars of the comic in iconic headshot form. Each 1.5” diameter pin is designed by award-winning artist Francesco Francavilla, based on his amazing cover artwork from the first issue.

Enamel pins have blown up in popularity the last several years, fueled by unique inspiring artists like Francavilla and collectors sharing their finds on social media. Dynamite has fulfilled rabid fans so far with pins featuring Red Sonja, Vampirella and the Chaos! Universe. The pins will be available as a discounted set as well as separately for super fans of the characters. Dynamite encourages everyone to collect them all!

“I’ve been working for both Dynamite and Archie Comics for a decade now, so when I was approached with the first crossover between these two favorite publishers of mine, I was ecstatic,” said Francesco Francavilla. “Not only was I asked to do a cover featuring four of the best, strongest female characters in comics, but I also got to do pins for each character. Best. Crossover. Ever!”

“Francesco’s vision of Archie is iconic and legendary, so when it came time to bring this crossover to life in pin form, having his take made perfect sense,” said Archie Comics Co-President Alex Segura. “Dynamite did a fantastic job putting these together and we’re happy to be a part of it.

“I can’t express how happy I am to not only have a great crossover with our friends at Archie, but also to take it to the next level to release these cool pins to create more excitement for our dedicated fans,” said Dynamite CEO/Publisher Nick Barrucci. “And being able to work with Francesco Francavilla to design these, well, words can’t express how excited I am!”

The Red Sonja and Vampirella Meet Betty and Veronica Enamel Pin Set will be solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ March 2019 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market, and slated for release in May 2019. Fans are encouraged to preorder with their local comic book retailers.
