Lena Dunham to Write for Archie Comics Because Why Not

Continuing her domination of all forms of media, Lena Dunham will now be writing for the classic comic book series Archie.

Or at least a four-part story arc set to release in 2015.

According to Archie CEO Jon Goldwater (via Comic Book Resources), "She's the voice of her generation. To have someone like that say, 'Not only am I a fan, I'd love to write something,' it just epitomizes all the hard work we've put in for the last five years."

"We sent her a box of tons of Archie books, she devoured them all, and maybe a week or two later came back with her pitch," added screenwriter Aguirre-Sacasa. "I'm not going to spoil it, but it's really, really funny. It's incredibly contemporary. It's a classic Archie story, with a definitely unique, Lena spin, and it's going to be set in Archie continuity."

He concluded, "She brings a unique point-of-view to all these characters, but she also loves them, and knows what makes them work. It's really good stuff, and obviously it's going to be a huge deal for Archie."

Ah, we can see it now: Archie, disillusioned with the adult life gets naked and bangs a lot with help from his friend Judd Apatow.

Or something. It's a work in progress.
