Jughead's Double Digest #157
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Going to the Dogs," Jughead dives into a Civil War mystery in Riverdale, where a mysterious figure known only as Colonel Pickens allegedly turned the tide of battle. Written by Rich Margopoulos and illustrated by Gene Colan with inks by Rudy Lapick, this time-traveling adventure sees Jughead racing through history to uncover the truth behind the legend—before the past changes forever. The cover by Pat Kennedy and Jon D'Agostino captures the moment with a classic, nostalgic flair.
In "Storm Center," Jughead faces the icy wrath of a blizzard while on a grocery run, with Hot Dog by his side—literally, as a makeshift St. Bernard with a root beer barrel around his neck. It’s a snowy, sticky situation that tests both appetite and loyalty.
In "A Word to the Unwise," Moose's literal interpretation of the word "doldrums" sends the school into a whirlwind of misunderstandings, prompting Mr. Weatherbee and Miss Grundy to step in with a dictionary—though even that might not be enough to clear up the confusion.
In "Will The Real Colonel Pickens Please Stand Up?", Jughead dives into a Civil War mystery that’s as tangled as a forgotten sandwich recipe—Riverdale’s own historic battle, where a mysterious Colonel Pickens appeared out of nowhere and changed everything. With a mix of curiosity and his usual appetite for the absurd, Jughead leaps into the past to uncover the truth behind the legend, chasing a mystery that might just be more than just a story.
When Archie brings his old puzzle—where you line up colored balls with matching holes—to school, it accidentally sparks a chaotic game that pulls in Dilton, Moose, and Reggie, landing all four in detention. It’s a simple setup with big consequences, proving that even the quietest classroom distractions can spiral fast.
