''Archie Vs. Predator II'' is a 2019 5-issue miniseries written by Alex de Campi and drawn by Robert Hack, released under the publication of Creator/DarkHorseComics and Franchise/ArchieComics. A direct sequel to 2015's ComicBook/ArchieVsPredator, the story picks up where the original left off: Betty and Veronica wandering the ruins of Riverdale with the teenage Predator (now transformed into a copy of Archie). However, an attempt to undo the death and destruction unexpectedly leads to the three meeting their modern, rebooted counterparts. Unbeknownst to any of them, though, more Predators are making their way to Earth...

!!This Comic Book Provides Examples Of:
* DarkierAndEdgier: The first miniseries was a DarkComedy, helped by the ArtStyleDissonance depicting the violence and gore in the classic Archie style. While not without humor, this series is more often played straight, signified by the art style looking more like the modern Archie comics.
* MeetYourEarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Both played straight and [[InvertedTrope inverted]]; the modern versions of Betty and Veronica are weirded out by the lengths their classic versions went to to try to win Archie. In contrast, the classic versions of Betty and Veronica are stunned that neither of their counterparts are dating a single Archie.
* {{Retcon}}: [[LampshadedTrope Lampshaded]]; Betty, Veronica, and the teen Predator end up in the modern Riverdale of ComicBook/ArchieComics2015 upon leaving their version of the town.
* SetRightOnceWhatWentWrong: Veronica plans to try to undo all of the death and destruction from the first miniseries by finding and walking down Memory Lane. Unfortunately, things don't go according to plan.
