Kevin Keller is a fictional character in the Archie Comics universe. He premiered in ''Veronica'' #202, published in September 2010. Created by writer/artist Dan Parent, Kevin is the first openly gay character in Archie Comics history. ==Character description and publication history== In Keller's initial storyline, "Isn't It Bromantic?", Veronica expresses interest in dating Kevin but he is uninterested. As he and Jughead bond over their mutual love of food, Kevin explains that he does not want to date Veronica because he is gay. Kevin also bonds with Betty Cooper and they become best friends. Archie Comics co-CEO Jon Goldwater explained that including an openly gay character is a way to keep the world of Archie Comics inclusive and updated. "Archie's hometown of Riverdale has always been a safe world for everyone. It just makes sense to have an openly gay character in Archie comic books." ''Veronica'' writer Dan Parent concurred, saying "It shows that Riverdale is in the 21st century."〔 Keller returned in ''Veronica'' #205 and headlined his own four-issue miniseries, ''Kevin Keller'', beginning in June 2011. The new series focused on Keller's life before he arrived in Riverdale, including his struggles in junior high school. It also establishes that he is an Army brat and introduces the characters Wendy and William, friends whom Keller had been previously seen texting. In July 2011 Archie Comics announced that Keller would star in his own ongoing solo title, also titled ''Kevin Keller''. The new series debuted in February 2012. Reportedly Keller would become president of his high school class but would also face "adversity". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kevin Keller (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
