As we move swiftly into the holiday season, let’s take a moment to reflect.  Reflect upon the beauty of the falling leaves. Reflect upon the scent of fresh baked pies carried on the breeze and the laughter around a freshly cooked turkey. Reflect upon the sheer existential dread that comes with realizing you’ll need to untangle those holiday lights again.

In Jughead and Archie Jumbo Comics Digest #23, our titular heroes join Riverdale High School’s Holiday Decorating Committee to get out of trouble with Mr. Weatherbee. In doing so though, they underestimate the challenge of the task before them!  Will Archie and crew be able to muster the forces to make their school a winter wonderland?  Begin to learn the answer in our exclusive preview after the jump.
