Archie Giant Series Magazine #9

In "Foreign Entanglement," Jughead spins a playful lie over the phone, pretending to be a French count to trick Veronica into canceling her date with Archie—so he can finally snag a seat at a basketball game with his best pal. Written with a wink and drawn in the classic Archie style, the story captures the charm of teenage schemes and the timeless appeal of a well-timed prank.

In "Victory At the Polls," Jughead enlists Reggie in a clever campaign to win junior class president—only this time, the candidate’s identity stays hidden until the votes are counted. With a mystery persona and a plan that hinges on sheer popularity, Jughead sets the school on its ear, turning the election into a game of suspense and surprise.

In "Togetherness," Jughead finds himself unsettled when Reggie plants a doubt: if he and Archie are such good friends, does that make him a bad person? The story explores the weight of friendship and self-perception, as Jughead grapples with the idea that being close to someone so different might mean he’s lost his true self.
