Archie's Pal Jughead Annual #5

In "Hear No Evil," Midge pushes Moose into hosting a party for the gang, setting off a chain of mischievous antics. Jughead, Archie, and Reggie seize the chance to tease Moose—whose nerves make him blissfully unaware of their barbs—leading to a series of laugh-out-loud moments fueled by misunderstanding and classic teen mischief.

In "Voice of Doom," Jughead’s new ventriloquism hobby takes a mischievous turn when he uses his talent to stir up trouble—first with Veronica, then with Reggie, and finally with Moose and Mr. Weatherbee—turning the whole school into a whirlwind of confusion. The story captures Jughead’s signature charm and comedic timing, turning a simple trick into a chain reaction of escalating chaos.

In "Charm Chump!", Jughead’s misfortune with a batch of lucky horseshoes lands him a settlement—sparking Reggie’s idea to fake injuries at wealthy homeowners’ properties to cash in. With a grin and a limp, Reggie sets out to turn his charm into cash, one staged accident at a time.

When Archie and Reggie both catch on that Big Moose is too busy laughing at Jughead’s Bermuda shorts to pay attention to them, they decide to join in—wearing their own pairs in a bid to finally get Midge’s attention. The results are predictably chaotic, as the whole gang gets caught up in the shorts-fueled antics.

In "The Passing of the Buck," Archie’s pal Jughead finds himself caught in a chain of evasions when Mr. Weatherbee assigns him to clean the school storeroom—only to pass the chore down the line to Reggie, then to Jughead, who finally dodges the task by stumbling upon a surprising pair of old report cards.

When Archie shuns the cap and bush jacket Veronica gave him—too embarrassed to wear them—Jughead reluctantly takes them on, only to find himself unexpectedly turning heads. The shift in attention sends a ripple through Riverdale, but the real surprise isn’t who’s looking, it’s who’s left behind.

In "Finny Fiesta," Veronica convinces Jughead to wait at her house for a special delivery from her father, setting off a classic case of Archie’s curiosity—and concern—over whether Jughead might mistake the rare tropical fish for lunch. The promise of a fish, a house full of suspense, and Jughead’s legendary appetite make for a delightfully silly showdown of wits and hunger.
