The showrunner said, “we’re going to honor that proud tradition of Hiram hating Archie and also subvert it. And Mark is much more charming than the Hiram in the comics. For a while, we’re not going to know what his intentions are — if he’s truly reformed or not. Very quickly, we’re going to know he has a strong opinion about Archie, though.”
