The Jughead Jones Comics Digest #17

Jun 1981 · Archie · 0.95 USD
“Blind Date Blues”

In "Blind Date Blues," Jughead Jones stumbles into a whimsical misadventure when he dons his Uncle John’s bellbottoms—only to knock himself out and wake up convinced he’s a secret naval operative. With the pants themselves seemingly whispering orders, Jughead’s imagination runs wild as he tries to fulfill a mission he can’t quite remember. Written and illustrated by Bob Bolling, with colors by Barry Grossman and letters by Bill Yoshida, this 1981 comic features a delightfully absurd twist on a classic Archie misstep, all wrapped in Dan DeCarlo’s iconic cover art.
