Jughead's Double Digest #20

In "Hero Worship," Reggie grows tired of Jughead’s constant praise for saving a child and decides to stage his own heroic moment—just to get some attention of his own. With a mix of clever planning and classic Riverdale chaos, he sets out to outshine his rival, but the line between performance and reality starts to blur in unexpected ways.

When Betty’s cane slips during a tense moment, it knocks both Veronica and Reggie off their feet—literally. Furious at the mishap, Veronica vows to get even, turning a simple accident into a playful feud that’s as sharp as it is unexpected.

In "The Children's Hour," Betty and Veronica reach their breaking point when Reggie and Jughead escalate their usual bickering into a full-blown, playground-style war of insults. Determined to prove they’re the mature ones, the boys attempt to out-sass each other with grown-up jabs—only to watch in smug satisfaction as the girls finally snap, their fury revealing just how childish the whole spectacle really is.

In "A Matter of Degree," Betty and Veronica take a playful, prankster turn when they disguise themselves as men to test whether Jughead's attitude changes—only to find themselves caught in a web of mistaken identities and classic Riverdale chaos. Written with sharp wit and classic humor, the story puts the usual dynamics on their head, all in a single, cleverly paced six-page gag.

In "Plant Pirate," Archie and Jughead team up for a wild, leafy rescue when Mr. Weatherbee accidentally ruins Miss Grundy’s prized soil. With quick thinking and a splash of chaos, they toss her potted plants one by one into the pile below—until the final, most important one lands right on Weatherbee’s head as he peers out the window.

In "The Hard Ones," Archie, Reggie, and Jughead find themselves unexpectedly drawn into Riverdale High’s search for maintenance volunteers—after overhearing Mr. Weatherbee and Miss Grundy talk about budget cuts. What started as a joke quickly turns into a real dilemma as the trio grapples with the idea of trading their usual antics for some actual hard work.

In "Tennis Anyone?", Betty and Veronica team up to keep a double date with Archie and Jughead—though not without nerves, as they’re determined to avoid Reggie, knowing full well the chaos that could erupt if he shows up. With tennis rackets in hand and tempers on edge, the group’s attempt at a peaceful afternoon quickly becomes a high-stakes game of dodge and distraction.

In "The Name of the Game," Betty and Veronica take a playful turn, declaring that every boy must have a name—so they start assigning them, much to the amusement (and mild annoyance) of the boys, who insist they’re perfectly fine without labels. The story unfolds with the usual Riverdale charm, poking fun at how names can become a big deal—even when they’re totally unnecessary.
