Jughead's Double Digest #178

In "Conscience Stricken," Jughead’s conscience takes a literal form—floating on his shoulder as a tiny, miniature version of himself—leading to a surprisingly awkward encounter with a girl whose own conscience has other ideas. When her conscience starts developing feelings for Jughead’s, the situation spirals into a surreal, self-aware comedy of misdirected emotions.

In "The Contest," Jughead finds himself unexpectedly entered in a high-stakes ice-skating competition—despite having zero experience on the ice. While everyone else tumbles and falls, his unorthodox, non-skating approach earns him an unlikely victory.

In "The Best Policy," Ethel stumbles upon a way to smooth things over between Jughead and Joani, but she’s torn—should she come clean, or keep the secret to win Jughead’s attention for herself? With her usual mix of cleverness and quiet scheming, she weighs her options in a moment that could change everything.

When Jughead is kicked out of Veronica's fancy party for being too much of a slob, Dilton steps in with a high-tech belt that projects a holographic version of a dapper, well-dressed gentleman—right around Jughead. Suddenly, the guy who can’t tie a tie is the one with the perfect style, and the party scene gets a whole lot more awkward.

In "Trick or Treat," Bingo attempts to train Rebel in the art of performing tricks, but the dog’s true talents only surface when Teddy’s around—just to keep his rival on his toes.

In "Betty in Wonderland," Betty takes on the role of Alice in a whimsical tale she spins for the Anderson children, transforming her friends into familiar characters from the classic story. With playful imagination and a touch of her signature charm, she leads them through a surreal adventure where the rules of reality bend just enough to keep things delightfully strange.
