Jughead with Archie Digest #79
In "Rhyme Without Reason," Jughead’s latest obsession turns the entire school into a rhyming frenzy—everybody’s stuck in verse, from Archie to Mr. Weatherbee. When even the teachers can’t resist the rhythm, Betty and Veronica join forces for a bold plan: a head-slam to break the spell. Written by Frank Doyle and brought to life with vibrant, energetic art by Samm Schwartz, this classic 1987 digests issue features a delightfully absurd twist on the gang’s usual antics, all capped off with a timeless cover by Dan DeCarlo.
