Making something old feel new again is one of the hardest things you could do in any medium. That said, Chip Zdarsky and Erica Henderson make it look easy with Jughead #4, a comic that takes story beats and characters that have been around since the '40s and makes them feel brand new and vital to the new landscape of comics. Jughead #4 is clever and a fun read, but its major strength will always be its respect for the stories that came before and the care it takes to make those stories feel new again. Jughead may have been around for decades, but this creative team is taking great strides to make sure that it feels like he and the gang never left. Read Full Review

Even if not, the Jughead fans know and love is still here. Read Full Review

Zdarsky and Henderson expand the world of Riverdale High with an intriguing story and entertaining characters. Every panel by Henderson is richly detailed and immerses the reader in a fun high school universe. The pirate scene seemed disconnected and unclear about how it was meant to be interpreted in the larger framework of the issue's events. The way this scene landed with such a perplexing impact adds a confounding feeling to the overall experience of reading this issue. Read Full Review

Jughead gets into a fix and than has the Jughead luck to get out of it. The art style is classic as well and it is different having only Jughead from the gang in a story. It is funny though how the story ends. Read Full Review
