Archie's Pal Jughead #3
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Rubber Bonanza," Jughead's well-intentioned plan to gift his mom a rubber plant takes a hilariously unexpected turn when he accidentally bids on a whole factory instead. With George Frese handling both the interior art and the cover, this 1950 classic captures Jughead’s signature mix of innocence and accidental luck in a story where a simple misunderstanding leads to an unlikely windfall.
Jughead’s simple plan to buy a rubber plant for his mom spirals into a surprise auction adventure when he accidentally bids on a whole factory instead. With a little confusion and a generous offer from the underbidder, he finds himself walking away with a bonus — and a whole lot of unexpected cash.
In "Penny-Wise," Jughead stumbles upon an old penny and convinces Pop he can turn it into real cash by selling it—though he’s willing to eat the burgers first. The story follows his hopeful (and hilariously misguided) plan, with the inevitable twist that even a penny’s worth is still just a penny.
