Archie & Friends Double Digest Magazine #27
In "The Magic Is Gone," Jughead’s latest prank—wearing a mop top wig to Mr. Weatherbee’s office after getting in trouble for eating in class—sparks an unexpected trend across Riverdale High. When the principal says nothing, students start donning the wigs en masse, until Mr. Weatherbee finally puts a stop to it… only to try one on himself. Written by George Gladir and illustrated by Samm Schwartz, with colors by Barry Grossman and letters by Schwartz, this whimsical tale captures the school’s chaotic energy. The cover, by Fernando Ruiz and Andrew Pepoy, perfectly captures the moment of absurdity.
