“Hot Lips” Jughead does a good deed and gets paid in affection. Poor Jughead gets all warm just not in a way he wanted.
“Cold Nose, Warm Heart” Archie’s generosity and warm heart is its own reward of course though money is nice to. It is a warmhearted story. The art is the usual great style you have come to expect from Archie Comics.
