Chip Zdarsky and Erica Henderson bring Jughead back to his own solo title just when we needed him most.
In 2012, Archie Comics stopped publishingJughead, their monthly showcase of the adventures of Riverdales coolest teen.
For the first time since 1949, the character had been without his own solo series.
So yeah, Jugheads had a rough couple of years.
Indeed, his eyes only ever fully open when he is outraged, usually about something food-related.
The book is also a glorious thing to look at.
Erica Hendersons blending of realism and expressive, almost cartoonish details is the perfect contrast to Zdarskys words.
You may be surprised by how much this comic makes you laugh, but longtime Jughead fans wont.
Theyve been waiting for this day for awhile.
