Sélection Archie (et amis) #553

In "Soyons Prêts," Jughead’s preachy lecture on safe driving clashes with his own sudden, high-speed dash to get a young boy to the hospital—proving that even the most laid-back of friends can break the rules when it counts.

In "Dernière Fois," Archie is heartbroken when Veronica stands him up, prompting Jughead to convince him to send a breakup letter—though he never actually stamps it. When Archie and Veronica reconcile just in time, the letter’s fate hangs in the balance, leading to a frantic dash to intercept it before the Mailman delivers it.

In "Qui Fait Mieux!", Archie and Jughead trade increasingly outlandish tales with a traveling hobo, each trying to top the last with wilder stories of their own lives—until Mr. Lodge and R. V. Cornwall, intrigued by the spectacle, decide to join in, and Veronica arrives just in time to witness the absurd escalation.

In "Bonne Pomme," Jughead Jones, Archie, and Reggie find themselves tempted by Mr. Lodge’s offer to pay them for picking apples in his orchard—only for Reggie to suggest a more mischievous plan. Instead of working during the day, the boys decide to sneak into the orchard at night, chasing the thrill of a classic prank with a sweet twist.

In "Inspectuer Jones," Jughead Jones is tasked by Mr. Weatherbee with surveying the school’s structural integrity, but his official mission quickly spirals into a misunderstanding when the students believe he’s secretly spying on them. As Jughead navigates the halls with clipboard in hand, he becomes an unlikely target of suspicion among his peers—especially Ellie and a group of unnamed teens—turning a routine inspection into a social minefield.
