Friday Archie: peanut-butter lipstick

The only reason Jughead would kiss a girl, not to mention Ethel, is if there’s some relation to food. If you have to stoop this low of a level, Ethel, it’s not worth it.

Finally, a review of “Veronica #202″

It seems like I’ve been talking about this forever! For months! What with the first introduction of Kevin, my analysis of sexuality and how it relates to Archie Comics, tackling how to write Jughead in this post-openly-gay Archie world, even a preview of my review! And now it’s finally here! What can I say...

“Veronica #202″: First reactions

As much as I’ve talked about Kevin Keller and Veronica #202, it would be remiss of me to wait a long time before I, at least, gave my first reactions to the issue. Firstly, let me state that I haven’t gotten a physical copy of the book yet; I’ve had to read most of...

“The Geek and Nerd Show”:The inaugural episode *or* Inception,Archie, and Scooby, Oh My!

In the first episode of “The Geek and Nerd Show”, we’ll talk about the awesomeness that is “Inception”, Archie’s new gay friend Kevin Keller, whether or not Jughead is the original gay Archie Comics character, the new Scooby-Doo animated show, and more. I’d say this first episode was a rousing success, but I’ll warn you...

More awesomeness from “Jughead #202-Jughead Jones, Semi-Private Eye” and “Archie #611-The Man from R.I.V.E.R.D.A.L.E., pt. 2″

More awesomeness from “Jughead #202-Jughead Jones, Semi-Private Eye” and “Archie #611-The Man from R.I.V.E.R.D.A.L.E., pt. 2″

Archie Comics is keeping their storytelling game up with Jughead #202 and Archie #611, and I’m glad. In #202, Jughead, being obsessed with Film Noir movies, starts wearing a trenchcoat and talking like Humphrey Bogart. However, his obsession gets him involved in solving minor crimes around Riverdale, starting with Dilton asking Jughead to help...

My birthday came recently, and as a present to myself, I went and bought some comics from the local bookstore. I’m sure I’m behind the 8-ball when it comes to these particular comics I’m about to review, but I think their merit bears repeating. I generally like all of the Jughead comic book stories,...

Analyzing Jughead: gay or straight pt.2–Kevin, sexuality, and subtext

Post featured on Prism Comics! Subtext is seen in everything. Why else do people think Bert and Ernie are gay, Daphne and Fred were doing the nasty when they often split up to “look for clues” and that Prince Naveen is two steps away from being a man-slut? Subtext is the untold story behind...

Analyzing Jughead: Ripping the runway

Jughead has always been a popular character, but now he’s even influencing runway fashion! At trendhunter.com, they’ve uploaded pictures from the Dharma Taylor Autumn Winter 2010 collection, and suspicious pointed hats are seen throughout. Runway fashion is totally different than regular everyday fashion, however. If you’d like to look cool like Jughead, it’s possible!...

Analyzing Jughead-Jughead’s familial relationships

The dynamics between Jughead and his friends are always fun to sort out and analyze, but there is one set of dynamics, as commenter “mystic_blue” from the JugheadxBetty livejournal community Never Noticed Before, pointed out, which is Jughead’s interactions with his family. Let’s take a look at how Jughead interacts with his family members....

Analyzing Jughead: gay or straight?

(www.adam-amy.com) First, a note: Remember the article I wrote about Jughead through the different ages in America’s counter-cultures? Well, lately, I’ve been thinking about what I wrote, and I think I have another counter-culture that I didn’t initially include; the bohemian lifestyle. Thanks to the History Channel and their documentaries on the hippie culture...

Analyzing Jughead: Betty or Veronica?

I know Jughead is the eternal bachelor, but that hasn’t stopped me, along with a lot of fans and Archie Comics, Inc., from visualizing what it might be like for Jughead to be in a relationship. There have been Debbie, Ethel, Joani Jumpp, Trula Twyst, and January McAndrews, but the two girls I’m going...

Analyzing Jughead: Jughead is non-conformity and so can you!*

Whether he knew it or not, John L. Goldwater, publisher and editor of Archie Comics, was a genius to have created such an influential character like Forsythe Pendleton Jones III, or, as we know him, Jughead. Actually, I think he was a bit ahead of his time. To many (and probably to Goldwater), Jughead...
