If Archie Comics want to seriously step up their game, they should of considered more international marketing for their comics. For example I only started reading the comics online for the last few recent years because Archie Sonic comics were never sold in UK. And while Sonic the Comics were good during their production, I knew they wern't as good as the American ones which I was merely aware of at the time. I was around when StC was in production and was on subscription, so StC was my only window into the life of Sonic the Hedgehog when there was no new Sonic games to play back then. (We did had AoSTH and SatAM but it depended on the scheduling of the channels broadcasting.)

I'm familiar with some of ACP television shows such as that "Sugar" song. I've even watched the live-action Sabrina the Teenage Witch when my family had CITV. Back then I didn't know anything on Archie comics and just thought it was just a TV show CITV had. I've watched Archie's Weird Mysteries when it was shown on Pop and I enjoyed the various conspiracies, episodes and monster-of-the-day it had.

But I guess ACP considered their comics too "American" for british, europeans and other international audience to appreciate. Though since we brits enjoy Marvel and DC comics just as much as the Americans despite the comics taking place in American cities and such, I don't see why Archie comics were never distributed world wide to begin with.
