Archie's Pal Jughead Comics #166

Comics conventions and Jughead go together like burgers and fries, and this 2005 issue captures that energy perfectly. The cover by Rex W. Lindsey shows a beaming Jughead in his signature crown hat, happily browsing back-issue boxes at a "Galaxy Comics" convention booth — clutching a copy of The Fly while boxes labeled Mighty Crusaders sit nearby — as Archie and a pair of costumed attendees approach in the background. With the story "Convention Crisis" waiting inside, written by Craig Boldman with art by Rex Lindsey, this issue looks like a love letter to the comic-collecting experience.
