Comic Book Wednesday: February 22nd Picks

I've been dealing with a bad cold for the past few day, I had to postpone my 4-Day-4-Movie marathon because I feel awful. Something should at least make me feel a little better is Comic Book Wednesday.

My list includes only my regulars but there is a new Elektra series starting today, that's another one I will be picking up in trade.



Archie Comics

Jughead #13 (Cover C - Variant Jampole)

Book: Jughead #13

Description:

Reggie has won KING FOR A DAY! And it turns out his first act as King is to demand... that everyone else to form a band with him?

Okay that's actually not so bad; I was expecting way worse from Reggie. Wait, never mind, I'm getting word that DESPITE this very enjoyable and conflict-free premise, when Jughead plays around with the new music video for 'The Reggies' and accidentally uploads an altered and embarrassing clip to the internet, everyone becomes enraged at our favorite crown-wearing hamburger-loving pal! Even Betty, and she's the greatest! She doesn't get mad unless it's really important!

ANYWAY: Jughead will face CONSEQUENCES, but at least they'll be interesting AND HILARIOUS to read about!
