Jughead with Archie Digest #196
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Let’s Skip Ropes!", Jughead finds himself on the run—not from a food shortage, but from a group of girls who’ve decided he’s off-limits. When Reggie tries to distract them with a distraction of his own, he quickly learns that being unwanted is a two-way street. Samm Schwartz handles art, inks, and lettering with his signature flair, while Stan Goldberg’s cover captures the chaos in bold, classic style.
In "Hard to Get!", Jughead finds himself unexpectedly on the run—not from food, but from a swarm of girls who can’t have him. When Reggie tries to distract them with his usual antics, they’re not interested, leaving him to face the consequences when Jughead’s boastful pride backfires.
In "Teenese," Mr. Weatherbee and Miss Grundy attempt to solve a mystery using the baffling language of Teenese—Jo’s roundabout way of speaking—after a ball knocks Mr. Weatherbee unconscious. The resulting conversation is a hilariously tangled game of miscommunication, where every question leads to another riddle.
In "Hero to Go!!!", Jughead dreams of becoming Captain Hero and earning Big Ethel’s gratitude—only to wake up craving spicy food from Pop, convinced he’s given up sleep for good.
