The Jughead Jones Comics Digest #85

Blechly Krud’s father wields so much influence that he can bend the school to his will—forcing Blechly onto the soccer team despite his obvious lack of skill. With pressure mounting and his reputation on the line, Blechly must confront what it means to be defined by someone else’s power.

Jughead sets out to build a swing for his nephew using an old tire, but what starts as a simple project quickly spirals into a series of mishaps—each one landing squarely on Archie’s shoulders. With a mix of classic humor and chaotic charm, the story captures the absurdity of good intentions gone sideways.

When a lab mishap gives Jughead Jones an unexpected glow-in-the-dark shine, he accidentally discovers a new way to enjoy his favorite pastime—snacking on leftovers from restaurants he’s scared into emptying. With a little mischief and a lot of hunger, he becomes the uninvited guest no diner can refuse.
