Herman Jones

Herman Jones is a supporting student character at Riverdale High, the iconic fictional school of Archie Comics, occasionally crossing paths with familiar faces like Jughead and Moose in the digest anthology series.

A familiar face in the hallways of Riverdale, Herman Jones made his debut in 1992 courtesy of the legendary Stan Goldberg, stepping into the warm, wholesome world Archie Comics had been building since the Golden Age. Over a surprisingly enduring span stretching into 2015, he pops up across the digest universe — those beloved thick-and-chunky collections like Jughead's Double Digest and Archie's Double Digest Magazine — sharing pages with Riverdale staples like Jughead Jones, Moose Mason, and Reggie Mantle. He may not be a headliner, but that's part of his charm: Herman is the kind of character who reminds collectors just how richly populated Riverdale really is, a quiet testament to the depth of the Archie universe beyond its most famous faces.
