JUGHEAD & FRIENDS DIGEST #23
“The Real World?”: Finally, a scientific invention that can truly aid the entire free world: Dilton’s “infinite closet!”  Once Jughead sees it, the possibilities his mind conjures are infinite, too… and inevitably, he falls right in before Dilton’s warnings reach his ears!  Hurtling through the void, Jughead lands smack dab in the middle of a comic book company – Archie Comic Publications, to be exact!  What will all the writers and artists do when they find their 2-D creation has literally broken through the “fourth wall” and entered their 3-dimensional world?  It’s a story that could only be told in… you guessed it… a comic book!
SCRIPT AND ART: Fernando Ruiz.

im likin those stories

Why are the pics so small this time?

Looking foward to all!!

this is so cool all of the pics you can email your self

That Jughead and Friends cover looks so cool!  You've done a great job on it, Fernando!

Thanks! Much of the credit for that cover goes to the legendary inker, Bob Smith, and the really under-appreciated master of coloring and computer effects, Tito.

I hope you guys give this issue a shot. If you read only one ARCHIE comic this year make sure this is the one! Not only do you have Jughead in one of his most surreal adventures ever, but you get to see him in action with many of the behind-the-scenes Archie crew.

i dont think you have to worry bout anyone NOT getting this issue or any other issue

so....Tito eh??? what is it exactly that he does..is he like just the color guy or what??

A lot of those special effects you see on that cover are all Tito. The folds in Jughead's shirts, the retro dot pattern over the background panels, and touches like the highlights on Jughead are the result of Tito's photoshop wizardry. I just got my copy of this issue this past week and I'm pretty happy with how it looks.

A tip of the hat and a big salute also has to go out to that Icon of Ideas, Digest Editor Nelson Ribiero for coming up with the whole idea! His flunkies, Carlos and Adam, are nice guys too.
