Jughead & Friends Digest Magazine #37
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Joking Jester," Archie finds himself trapped in a whimsical medieval fantasy where Jughead plays a jester—still cracking jokes, still delightfully terrible—while Archie and the gang navigate a world straight out of a video game. Written by George Gladir and brought to life by Tim Kennedy’s art, with colors by Joe Morciglio and inks by Rich Koslowski, this playful digression blends classic Archie charm with a clever, game-inspired twist. The cover by Tim Kennedy and Jon D'Agostino captures the absurdity perfectly.
In a whimsical twist, Archie finds himself trapped in a medieval video game where his friends are knights and royalty—while Jughead, ever the jester, keeps cracking terrible jokes that echo through the castle halls. The dream blurs reality as the line between game and life begins to fade, leaving Archie wondering who’s really in control.
In "Will Power," Jughead faces a tough choice when Pop raises hamburger prices, leading him to enlist Big Ethel’s help—only to find her price for the meal is a kiss, one he’s far from eager to pay. Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, this short, sweet, and slightly awkward moment captures Jughead’s usual hunger and stubborn pride in a new, surprisingly tender light.
In "Two's a Crowd," Jughead’s misadventure at the post office leads to an accidental flood, forcing Segarini and Pop Tate to share the cramped space of the diner for a while. With the usual order disrupted and tempers flaring, the situation turns surprisingly awkward—especially when one of them has to stay put while the other tries to make do.
