Archie #481

In "Don’t Look Now," Mr. Weatherbee takes a surprising stand, convinced that Jughead’s laid-back charm is steering Archie off the path of productivity—so he tasks Jughead with spending less time with Archie and more with Dilton, hoping to steer Archie toward more… scientific pursuits. Written by Angelo De Cesare and brought to life with classic flair by Stan Goldberg (art), Bob Smith (inks), Barry Grossman (colors), and Bill Yoshida (letters), this 1999 issue captures the familiar chaos of Riverdale with a twist that puts Jughead in an unexpected spotlight. The cover, penciled by Goldberg and inked by Henry Scarpelli, perfectly captures the moment’s quiet tension.
