Little Archie #179
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Fortune," Jughead’s latest sci-fi novel—meant as a creative escape—accidentally becomes a school crisis when Miss Grundy mistakes it for his book report. The story takes a surprising turn when Principal Weatherbee, instead of punishing him, is impressed by the tale and encourages Jughead to keep writing. A delightfully quirky mix of classroom chaos and creative spark, this 1982 classic features all the charm of Archie’s early '80s art style, with Dexter Taylor handling writing, art, inks, and letters, and Barry Grossman adding color. The cover by Dexter Taylor captures the moment perfectly, showing Jughead caught between imagination and detention.
In "The Book Report," Jughead’s latest attempt at avoiding homework takes a wild turn when his sci-fi novel gets mistaken for a book report by Miss Grundy. What starts as a prank spirals into an unexpected twist when Mr. Weatherbee actually enjoys the story—and wants more.
