“The Fortune”

In "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.
