Jughead and Archie Double Digest #23

In "Santa's Little Helpers!", Archie’s holiday plans hit a snag when his wallet—and his excuses—run out faster than hot cocoa at a winter party. With Veronica waiting and his luck swinging like a pendulum, Archie’s quest to impress her is derailed by debt, radio contests, and a string of last-minute surprises. Written by Hal Smith and illustrated by Tim Kennedy, with inks by Rudy Lapick and letters by Bill Yoshida, this festive tale of missteps and miscalculations is a holiday comic with heart, humor, and a touch of seasonal stress. The cover, by Bill Galvan, captures the chaotic charm of the season.
