Mr. Weatherbee and Jughead come to a battle of the taste buds when the Bee accuses Jughead of having an unrefined palate. What starts as a discussion of culinary choices turns into a race around Riverdale to see who can eat the most! It’s MEN VS. FOOD in “The Feast and the Furious.” Then, a class trip to the local petting zoo is a bust when the biggest bear in Riverdale is hibernating for the season. To make matters worse—the snack bar is closed, too! See how the teens will handle this abomination when left to their own devices. It’s MEN VS. WILD in “The Snack Attack!” Enjoy both of these fun new stories and more classic comics fun in this jumbo-sized comics digest!
