Jughead #253

Outside Riverdale High, Jughead delivers his deadpan punchline to Archie — "I must be getting insomnia… I haven't slept in class once this week!" — while Betty laughs along and Veronica looks on with an amused smirk in this June 1976 gem. Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli's cover captures the whole gang mid-stride, with Jughead's impeccable comedic timing front and center. It's a warm, instantly charming snapshot of everything that made the Archie Series such reliable fun.
