Archie's Pal Jughead Comics #189

The cover of Archie's Pal Jughead Comics #189 says it all — a wide-eyed Jughead tumbles amid a cascade of dirt, broken pots, and mechanical gears while Archie, Veronica, an older gentleman, and a smirking Reggie look on, with that telling "OOPS!" speech bubble hanging in the air. The cover tagline reveals that Reggie holds the button with the power to turn Jughead into an outcast in the story "The Sound and the Fury." Stan Goldberg's pencils and Bob Smith's inks deliver the kind of warm, energetic slapstick chaos that makes this 2008 series such a fun read for fans of Riverdale's lovable loafer.
