Jughead #280
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Sporting Life," Jughead sets a bold new goal: living entirely without artificial ingredients or fibers—only to quickly realize just how deeply those elements are woven into everyday life. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with energetic art by Samm Schwartz, this 1978 issue captures Jughead’s trademark determination and humor as he navigates the surprisingly complex world of natural living. The cover by Stan Goldberg and Jon D'Agostino perfectly captures the comic’s lighthearted spirit.
In "On The Nose," Jo finds herself in a sticky situation when Hap scolds Jinx for using a fly-swatter indoors, prompting Jinx to go full arsenal with aerosol bug spray in a surprisingly aggressive pursuit of the pesky insect. The chaos unfolds in a few quick, slapstick pages, capturing the classic humor of the era.
In "Hero Worship," Reggie decides he’s had enough of Jughead’s constant praise after the latter saves a child, so he stages a fake rescue to steal the spotlight. The story follows his plan as he tries to outshine his rival, all while keeping his scheme from being exposed.
In "Nature's Remedy," Jughead sets out to live a life free of artificial ingredients and fibers—only to quickly realize just how much of his world he’ll have to give up. The challenge hits hard when he starts reading the fine print on everything from his favorite snacks to his clothes.
