Jughead and Archie Double Digest #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Label Fable," Archie finds himself tangled in a sticky situation when Snapsy Soda Co. runs a promotion offering free drinks for photos customers submit—especially if they’re funny. Archie reluctantly poses with one of Veronica’s sweaters for a laugh, only to discover the photo’s now plastered on a soda can, and he’s desperate to keep it from her. Written by Craig Boldman and illustrated by Rex Lindsey, with inks by Rich Koslowski, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Jack Morelli, this lighthearted tale captures the classic charm of the Archie universe, all wrapped in a cover by Rex Lindsey.
In "Label Fable," Archie stumbles into a quirky marketing stunt when Snapsy Soda Co. offers free soda for photos customers love—leading him to pose with one of Veronica's sweaters in a ridiculous picture. Now stuck with the photo on a soda can, Archie’s desperate to keep it hidden from Veronica, knowing full well how she’d react to the absurd moment.
Archie’s hoping to squeeze in some homework during study hall, but a surprise detour to the drama club throws his plans into chaos. With a stack of papers in hand and a full head of dread, he tries on a series of increasingly ridiculous disguises just to stay hidden and finish up—though the real challenge might be staying out of sight long enough to get it done.
In "Roll Model," Jughead spins a clever tale to convince his teachers that he needs a skateboard to carry his books—only to secretly ride it through the halls when no one’s watching. With his usual mix of charm and mischief, he turns a simple request into a rolling adventure down the school corridors.
In "Odor of the Day!", Jughead’s latest culinary experiment goes off the rails when he buries a crock of his infamous stew to ferment—only for Reggie to mistake it for buried treasure. What follows is a stink-fueled chaos of mistaken identity, escalating antics, and a smell so potent it could clear a room (or at least make a squirrel reconsider its life choices).
In "Crowing Pains," Jughead faces off against the bizarre rituals of the Lofty Order of Crows when he’s handed a slip with the address for initiation—only to accidentally swap it with another note meant for Miss Shapely. When Mr. Weatherbee takes it upon himself to deliver the answer books, he ends up on the receiving end of a chaotic prank meant for Jughead, caught in a whirlwind of misplaced deliveries and escalating mishaps.
Archie wishes he and Veronica could spend more time together, frustrated by their conflicting schedules. Jughead suggests they stay in touch with a walkie-talkie, but Reggie overhears and quickly finds a way to intercept their messages.
