A lighthearted moment of mistaken identity unfolds in this 1992 classic, with Bill Vigoda’s expressive art capturing the family’s playful tension. The cover, by Dan DeCarlo and Alison Flood, perfectly sets the tone with its nostalgic charm.
In "Doll Daffy," Archie surprises everyone by bringing a broken doll to school, determined to fix it for a little girl. What starts as a quiet act of kindness quickly draws attention—while the boys mock him, the girls flock to Archie, each hoping he’ll mend their own favorite dolls.
In "Double Takes," Archie wrestles with superstition when he wonders if walking under a ladder really is bad luck—right before Betty’s date, the handsomest boy on the block, arrives with a surprise. Meanwhile, Mr. Weatherbee tries to stick to a diet, but his list of forbidden foods might be more trouble than it’s worth.
In "The Signature," Archie stumbles upon a surprising talent: Jughead can finish homework in record time—so long as he's munching on snacks. When Archie realizes he can trade food for help, he quickly turns the arrangement into a full-time deal, setting off a deliciously lazy kind of academic hustle.
Archie’s trying to explain his black eye with the most mundane excuse possible—walking into a door—but no one’s buying it, not even his closest friends. With everyone suspecting a fight or some other dramatic reason, Archie’s stuck in a classic teen dilemma: how do you defend a lie when the truth sounds even more ridiculous?
Jughead Jones gets an unexpected package from a far-flung uncle in South America—a tiny, fiery dragon. When he brings the creature to school on a leash, the little dragon’s flame-breath quickly turns lunchtime into chaos.
Archie tries to cram for a test, but every spot he picks—school, the river, even the front porch—is too noisy to focus. Just when his house finally goes quiet, he finally settles in to study—only to turn up the music and blast through his notes.
In "Here's Health," Veronica insists that calling someone out is good for your health, prompting Jughead to take her advice—literally. He sets out to stay healthy by scribbling increasingly sharp notes about Veronica on every wall in Riverdale.
When Archie’s dad discovers a report card with dismal grades on the kitchen table, he’s ready to deliver a lecture—until his wife reveals the shocking truth: it’s actually his own old report card, unearthed from the attic. A classic case of mistaken identity leads to a laugh-out-loud moment of family confusion.
In "Taster's Choice," Jughead Jones faces off against Mr. Weatherbee’s strict new rule: no eating outside the cafeteria—or else. With Reggie Mantle eager to report him, Jughead must find a way to satisfy his appetite without getting caught, all while navigating the usual chaos of Riverdale High.
