I've been a fan of Archie since late 2023 and have seen that they don't produce actual Jughead Digests these days. As if that weren't enough there's only jumbo Digests being produced. As such, I'd stick to the past comics, but I want to hear your opinions about this. Is Archie going downhill, or is it just bad changes? Mike Pellerito doesn't seem to know what he's doing.

Okay, so recently I bought a Jughead plush off of eBay for atleast $50 CAD. It was made by Kellytoy. Looking it up online seems to be a lost cause because I can't find any info on thse other than there was also Archie, Betty, Veronica and Reggie, plus the line was produced in 2005. It's official, by the way, and I DID contact the seller. However, Jughead seems to be gotten from a thrift store according to them, so it's a dead end. Below is the picture, if anyone could help I'd deeply appreciate it.

Jughead-lost his hat :(

What person would he date?

Archie comics: the only place where a love triangle can make you feel like your life choices are as chaotic as Jughead’s snack obsession. We’re not just reading for the laughs, we’re living them. Meanwhile, “outsiders” are over there reading serious adult books... We just nod and go back to Riverdale. 😂 #TeamArchie

So I just looked through the 2025 solicitations so far, and I've noticed a fearsome trend is continuing into from last year (I noticed this happen towards the end of 2024, not so much in the summer). A. The covers seem to be getting lazy. This isn't meant as a slight; I'll explain. The art is great, BUT there is so little art to be had. I've noticed so many covers are maybe just two or three characters on a super simple or simply blank background. I'm not sure why, or if this is a new rule. This may also have to do with the fact that I'm only seeing one or two artists working on covers and stories this year (through April) and that's it! B. A severe lack of new content. January seems okay. But I noticed lat year and in the upcoming months several digests don't have any new stories. The digests used to have two new stories after the reboot. And I don't mean the reprint digests (Showcase, Milestones), I mean the main series of digests (Archie, B&V, World of...). It's a major downer. I likely won't be buying any if they don't have new content because I'll just open and be disappointed (unless, again, it's one of the two reprint titles. Then I at least expect it. The main series, I kinda expect new content). In a world with no ongoing title of new content (where is this reboot anyway?) it's such a loss. Such a huge darn loss. Just spitballing here. Idk.

For example, I believe Archie's is the plaid pants, the shirt with the R, the bowtie, I think you all know which outfit I'm referring to and Jughead's I believe is that blue sweatshirt with an S but I want to know what you all think

Hey Archie fans - I remember reading an issue as a kid where Betty and Veronica realize they have too much stuff so they gather a lot of donations but end up liking each other's stuff so much that they only donate one little box. Can anyone tell me where to find it (or was it just a fever dream of mine)?

There was an issue I saw years ago where Veronica decided to get a pixie cut and people thought she was either a boy or she and Betty were a lesbian couple and she regrets the decision, I believe it came out in the 80's or 90's.

As you all heard, Diamond comic distributors has gone bankrupt because of their worse decision especially that some of the major comic book industries like DC and Marvel and major indie ones like image, Boom comics and Dark Horse have their own distribution systems and have left Diamond comic distributors like with Image comics recently.

While small to medium comic book companies rely on diamond comic distributors and Archie is one of them and with Diamond comic distributors bankrupt, this leads us to discuss in the current topic, what will happen to Archie comics now that diamond comic distributors is bankrupt?

I just got my hands on the Reggie x Betty comic "For One Brief Moment" - one of my favorites now! But I'm a little sad that this couple hasn't been explored more. I want more of them! Is there anyone else who feels the same way? Are there any fanfics of these two (if not, guess I'll go write my own lol)?

i remember in the issue theres like three or four stories, one where Archie visits his barber for a routine trim. The barber suggests trying a new hairstyle and shows Archie a poster with various options. As Archie considers each style, he imagines humorous scenarios of how his life would change with each haircut, ultimately deciding to stick with his classic look. and then theres a story where Mr. Lodge installs a device that alerts him whenever Archie kisses Veronica, leading to a series of comedic situations. I am not entirely sure about the details but this is what i remember.

Is there an Archie comics database that I can search too?

You ever feel like you're the only one in the world who understands that pizza > everything? Meanwhile, the "mainstream" crowd is over there discussing existentialism while we’re here, mastering the art of snack-fueled daydreams. Let’s be real—Archie and Jughead get us. Join us in the pizza-powered revolution.

Not selling on Reddit BTW. I have several issues from late 80s to mid 90s including a few complete mini series like Time Police featuring Jughead, the birth of Jellybean, and more, plus a few non-Archie series by Archie comics artists like Sonic the Hedgehog. They were all read once or twice and kept in bag with cardboard back since then.

I got the impression a majority of Archie comics don't hold value well so would it be better to sell it as one lot to a local consignment auction, sell it on eBay, or break it up and sell sets like all of 3000, all of this and that? Or do I take it to Salvation Army and let them sell it? There are a few comic book dealers around but they'll probably lowball me like 10 cents each.

edit: I do plan to type out the full list of all the comic books in the big box

I know that in the digests they repeat stories but were the annuals the same way? Or were they treated like the "13th issue" of the year?

This is the only panel that I have. Does anyone know what story this is from? Do you know the premise of it? I think it has to do with Reggie going to an alternate universe.

Jughead and Veronica (aka \"Jeronica\") sharing a milkshake at Pop's

I was looking through their free editions and seems like the September one is missing. Does anyone know where I can find it?

Here's a link to the August edition.

It was a one page joke.

Don’t remember it in its entirety but I believe it’s jughead, speaking

Punchline something like “never follow the way the ball bounces, it might be a football”

Any help greatly appreciated!
