Victor Gorelick has been named the new editor in chief of Archie Comics, replacing the recently deceased Richard Goldwater (see 'Archie's Richard Goldwater Dies').  Gorelick moves to the EIC position from his post as managing editor, which he's held since the mid-80s.  He started in the production department of Archie in the late 50s.

Mike Pellerito has been promoted to the post of managing editor, replacing Gorelick.  Pellerito was hired by Gorelick from the Joe Kubert School, and eventually became editor for Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic X, and Sabrina the Teenage Witch, the position from which he moves to managing editor.
