Jughead with Archie Digest #116

Jo, a devoted fan of the Archies, turns her bedroom into a shrine dedicated to the band, carefully displaying Archie’s boot, Jughead’s hat, and Reggie’s comb as prized souvenirs. The story captures her quirky passion with playful humor, spotlighting the absurd lengths of fandom in a lighthearted teen slice-of-life.

In "A Nose for News," Archie tries to prove himself on the school paper, stuck with chores while Reggie assigns him a new task: tracking down a reclusive philosopher named Singh Songh, who despises reporters. But when Singh Songh takes a liking to Archie’s red hair—believing it brings luck—Archie unexpectedly finds himself at the center of a story that could change everything.

In "A Fishy Tale," Jughead tries a new fishing tactic—using donuts as bait—while Betty earns a few extra bucks at the beach in her mermaid tail costume, posing for photos. The two unlikely setups collide in a lighthearted summer mishap that’s as sweet as it is silly.

In "Pipes of Panic," Jughead 1 discovers a wild new way to make music using pipes of Pan—turning heads and hearts with his tunes. But when Reggie 1 and Archie 1 try to follow suit, their melodies summon something far less romantic: a parade of increasingly alarming beasts.
