I remember little Souphead taught Jughead a lesson while Jughead was trying to teach him one.

My original point was just that I consider Jellybean and Souphead to be about equal level characters in the Archieverse.
I like them both. But really what the topic started out as was the idea of a spinoff of LWA, and Jellybean strikes me as the most likely candidate as a spinoff set in THAT universe that wouldn't be a mere clone of the parent series.
You don't realize this, because you don't read other comic books. Characters, no matter what "level" you as a reader deign to assign to them, are not stuck at whatever level you pigeonhole them. All someone needs to do is come up with a new spin or direction for that character, and that can change everything, catapulting them from years of obscurity into the spotlight, and raising them up in audience popularity. It's happened over and over again with other companies' characters. It may never have happened at Archie, but maybe it's because they were afraid to try. There was a time when things like Daredevil, Captain America, Iron Man, and Guardians of the Galaxy were some of Marvel's poorest-selling and least-popular series.

I was basically kidding around, DCR. But there are a lot of characters I'd rather see with a series than Jellybean, teenaged or not.

Re-reading Harrow County. I just love this series. The writing and art fit perfectly together.

I loved Jellybean as adult in Life With Archie. She worked in Jughead's while Midge was pregnant. And Midge had to stay off her feet. But in the beginning Jellybean was such a bad worker, she just hanged with Davey her boyfriend which Jughead didn't like. He was bad news. But when Midge almost lost the baby JellyBean got her act together & worked hard. I wish JellyBean was all grown up in the digests. They could have had more interesting stories maybe some that just starred her as the main character.
The inclusion of Jellybean as a teenager in The Married Life is kind of important because it's the one thing in there that really tells you exactly when The Married Life is taking place compared to the classic Archie stories: Jellybean is 15 years older, so The Married Life is taking place 15 years after high school. Maybe if LIFE WITH ARCHIE had been doing better sales-wise there could have been a spinoff with Jellybean in her own series.
Jellybean with her own series? I'm an Archie freak and I doubt I would buy that. I think LWA would have had to be moving 20 million copies of each issue to justify Jellybean with her own series. I think Pop Tate would be more interesting in his own series than Jellybean, LOL. Maybe if Souphead was in the mix with Jellybean, that would be more compelling.
