Jughead's Double Digest #198

In "Birthday Girl," Jughead takes it upon himself to cheer up a surprisingly downcast Miss Grundy, despite everyone telling him to mind his own business. What starts as a simple act of kindness unravels into a surprisingly heartfelt moment where the usually unflappable teacher reveals just how much she values being noticed — even if it’s for something as small as a birthday.

Jughead’s trying to ditch chemistry—literally—when he claims the lab’s fumes are messing with his mind (and his appetite). But when he tries to use his "health concerns" as an excuse, the real test might be whether he can survive a class full of volatile reactions… and his own excuses.

When Riverdale High’s new electronic bell system malfunctions after a short-circuit in Mr. Weatherbee’s office, chaos ensues—especially for Jo, who’s trying to keep up with the day’s schedule. The whole school is thrown into disarray, and it’s up to someone to figure out how to fix the dingaling before the day spirals completely out of control.

In "In a Stew," Jughead takes on Miss Beazley’s culinary crown after claiming he can cook better than her. When she dares him to prove it, his surprising skill leaves her stunned—though not necessarily in the way he expected.

In "A Day in the Life of a Fool," Bingo sets out with unwavering determination to win over Mr. Smythe—despite the odds, his own missteps, and the fact that Samantha seems perfectly content to stay out of it. With classic Wilkin persistence and a dash of comic misfortune, he navigates a day of increasingly absurd attempts to earn the man’s affection, all while Samantha watches from the sidelines.
