☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Real Thing," Jughead Jones takes a bold step toward wellness with a New Year's Resolution to eat healthy—only to find his body rebels in the most unexpected way. As his health declines, doctors deliver a shocking verdict: the only thing that can save him is a full return to his beloved junk food. Written and illustrated by Bill Golliher, with inks by Rudy Lapick and letters by Bill Yoshida, this classic digests story delivers a delicious twist on self-improvement, all wrapped in a cover by Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli.
In "Strung Out," Betty’s enthusiasm for joining the Archies’ band hits a sour note when she swaps her tambourine for a banjo—only to discover her playing isn’t quite up to par. When Reggie gently points out the truth, Betty’s quick to defend her talent, ending the moment with a well-aimed whack from the instrument.
Jughead Jones tries something bold for the new year: eating healthy. But when his body rebels with alarming speed, the doctor’s verdict shocks even him—his system demands junk food to survive. Can a man whose greatest strength is his appetite survive a diet that’s the opposite of his nature?
