Archie Annual #28

In "Collector's Item," Reggie, newly minted president of the student council, faces the dreaded task of collecting money for the school dance refreshments—something he’d rather avoid. When he struggles to get even a few dollars, Jughead steps in with a surprisingly simple, if unorthodox, method that turns the chore into a surprisingly smooth (and slightly mischievous) routine.

In "Grundy Punch!", Jughead dodges detention by announcing he'll deliver an oral composition on someone he admires—Miss Grundy—leaving everyone stunned by his unexpected choice.

In "Guard Duty!", Jughead finds himself the unlikely guardian of a prized cake, only to face a mystery when Miss Grundy claims it’s been nibbled overnight. With the cat asleep on top of it the whole time, Jughead’s alibi—and the case—gets a little too sweet to be true.

In "Handy Man!", Archie tries to hide his black eye from a locker mishap by staying home, but Reggie sees an opportunity to tease him—spreading rumors that Archie is avoiding a threat, turning a simple accident into a prank-fueled mystery.

In "Market Madness!", Jughead Jones accidentally becomes a stock market sensation after selling shares in himself—only to spiral into chaos when he tries to manage the trades himself. With Mr. Weatherbee demanding profits, Jughead turns to Mr. Lodge for help, but the advice leads to a frantic back-and-forth with his broker, leaving everyone scrambling. When the dust settles, the unexpected outcome leaves the whole gang with more than they bargained for.
