“The Better Half”
In "The Better Half," Jughead dreams he’s Rip Van Winkle after Miss Grundy assigns an essay imagining oneself as a book character—only to wake up wondering if he’s really just pretending. Samm Schwartz’s expressive art brings the sleepy classroom and surreal daydream to life, capturing Jughead’s signature blend of laziness and imagination.
