Archie's Pal Jughead #99
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Super Jug," Jughead takes a dollar loan from Archie to the extreme—dramatizing how one small act could spiral into chaos, all in his signature over-the-top style. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with bold, expressive art by Samm Schwartz, this 1963 classic captures Jughead’s wild imagination in a single, unforgettable moment. The cover by Samm Schwartz perfectly encapsulates the issue’s playful, exaggerated energy.
When a mysterious rock crashes to Earth during a downpour, Jughead’s life takes a bizarre turn—literally. Picking it up grants him super strength, turning heads (and hearts) at school, though he’d rather be left alone with a good sandwich.
In "A Loan and Blue," Jughead delivers his signature brand of absurd logic when Archie asks to borrow a dollar—only to spin a wildly exaggerated tale of financial ruin and chaos that could follow. With deadpan flair and over-the-top theatrics, Jughead turns a simple request into a full-blown cautionary fable, all while staying true to his love of food, naps, and avoiding responsibility.
