bookshelves: archie-comic, graphic-novel

Surprisingly excellent. Chip Zdarsky's irreverent, bizarre humour matches the Riverdale world well, and he's used the original comic format of lots of short stories to intersperse non-canon (probably) short arcs amid the longer arc. The longer arc in this one, btw, is that their high school has been taken over by a spy school, disrupting Jughead's very important nap and meal time.

Anyways it's hilarious, it's well done on a technical level that I wasn't quite expecting, and gotta appreciate that Jughead is openly ace, Betty is politically involved and circulating petitions, and Reggie is even more reggie than usual. (The brief bit where they met their dopplegangers in another town, and how Reggie reacted to his double, is so classic.)
