Archie's Pal Jughead #57
In "Quint-trouble-ets," Jughead finds himself in a buzzing predicament when his habitual whistling—meant to calm his bees—sparks chaos in Miss Grundy’s classroom. With bees swarming and Mr. Weatherbee caught in the middle, Jughead’s attempts to help only escalate the situation, leading to a surprisingly sharp climax. Samm Schwartz handles both art and inks, bringing the comedic mayhem to life, while Harry Lucey’s cover captures the frenzy in classic 1960s Archie style.

Jughead gets in trouble for whistling in class. He is whistling out of habit because it's how he soothes his bees. When bees invade Miss Grundy's room, Jughead is able to tame them by whistling, which gets him in more trouble with Mr. Weatherbee and leaves the bees buzzing around Mr. Weatherbee's head. Mr. Weatherbee pleads with Jughead to whistle them away, but Jughead lets out such a shrill whistle, that all the bees sting Mr. Weatherbee.
