“You Can't Win”
In "You Can't Win," Jughead faces a rare moment of self-doubt when Reggie plants the idea that being friends with Archie—so different from himself—must mean he's somehow a bad person. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Bill Vigoda, this 1960 classic explores friendship and identity with quiet humor and heart, all framed by Samm Schwartz’s sharp, expressive cover.
