Archie's Pal Jughead Comics #178

Feb 2007 · Archie · 2.25 USD
“The Competition”

In "The Competition," Jughead faces a long-overdue test of his word when Ethel holds him to a promise made five years prior. With Dilton’s help, Jughead tries to endure the challenge by using deep visualization—imagining better scenarios while stuck in a tough situation—turning an ordinary day into a mental adventure. Written by Craig Boldman and illustrated by Rex Lindsey, with inks by Rich Koslowski, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Jack Morelli, the issue captures the classic charm of the series, all wrapped in a cover by Rex W. Lindsey.
