...it's kinda wack that this title implies his name is "Jughead: The Hunger"

aw fuck yeah it's Unnecessarily Buckwild Shadow History time

god tier sequence tbh

I really don't think Frank Tieri writes Veronica nearly as well as the Smallwoods, unfortunately

Yeah that comic was just okay. Probably the low point of Archie Horror so far for me.

Redraw 2023

Redraw of a drawing I made late 2022 (original under the cut)

[ ID: Two characters, Jughead (left) and Veronica (right) are standing in the drawing. They are their Archie horror counterparts (Jughead being a werewolf and Veronica being a vampire) and are dressed in diffrent clothing. Jughead wears his whopee cap, a striped t-shirt and dark overalls. Veronica is wearing a more victorian esque vampire outfit with a white blouse with a red vest over it and with a ruffled tie or however they’re called. Both of them are looking at the camera with jughead biting into a sandwhich whilst doing so. ]

The Cursed Library: Alpha, written by Eliot Rahal, Magdalene Visaggio, interior art by Craig Cermak, covers by Craig Cermak, Robert Hack, Soo Lee, Reiko Murakami

An event ten years in the making has finally arrived... THE CURSED LIBRARY is a three-issue limited ARCHIE PREMIUM EVENT series that brings together the worlds of Madam Satan, Jinx, Danni Malloy, and a number of horror staples from the past decade. 

When we last left off in Madam Satan: Hell on Earth, Jinx has the former Queen of the Underworld trapped in the mysterious library, as her father-bestowed demon powers have intensified. To stop Jinx from becoming like her father, her best friend Danni Malloy must rescue and convince Madam Satan to guide her through Hell itself to find the one thing that can possibly save her friend’s soul––Jinx’s mom. Along the way, they’ll also discover a number of faces they’ve seen before, though only in the pages of the terrifying tomes within the cursed library. This three-issue limited series horror event tells a story about the bonds that tie us together and how the only thing that can save the world from evil is radical love.

Wam Reads 2024: Jughead: The Hunger Vol. One TP

Returning to the Archie Horror line of books, it’s time to get my gnashers into a more meaty read: Jughead The Hunger. A series which launched off the popularity of a one-shot, how does this stack up compared to much loved Sabrina and Afterlife with Archie books?

With no prior knowledge of this series before reading, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with the direction taken. Rather than the more spine-tingling horror of Sabrina or the black comedy of Afterlife, Jughead the Hunger has a more campy 80s horror movie vibe. And this works wonderfully, as there is a lot going on within these first four issues as Frank Tieri sets up his version of Riverdale and the supporting cast.

Meshing together some classic werewolf horror tropes, coming of age, along with, of course the loveable nonsense of Riverdale character dynamics, Jughead is established to be a sympathetic character. Discovering himself to be a werewolf and out of control, he loses the life he holds dear, fleeing for the safety of well, everyone.

And things? Things don’t go to plan. For Betty is the latest in a long line of werewolf hunters, intent on eliminating Jughead. The reveal that she never was truly infatuated with Archie and used him to hide her true intentions is hilarious, and one of the many clever uses of classic Riverdale characterisations to give this story its unique twist.

The art and colouring is superb, with the softer colour palette making the gruesome scenes less gory, and more spectacular. This helps match the tone of the story, with this feeling like an action horror rather than images intent on giving you nightmares.

Overall this is a very fun read. The pacing of the issues means this is a book which won’t take you too long to get through, but there is plenty of bonus material in terms of variant covers, sketches etc for you to appreciate once you’ve finished the main issues. I’m definitely excited to see where his goes next, and just how much more trouble the hapless Jughead can get himself into!

[lighthailstorm]

character/film playlists updated

characters:

Arisu Ryohei (Alice in Borderland, 2020-present): i'm (impatiently) waiting for the new season to drop. but in the meantime i made a japanese sad boy playlist for my favorite character on the show.

Carmen Berzatto (The Bear, 2022-present): songs that i think carmie would listen to, if he even had time to listen to music.

Christopher Moltisanti (The Sopranos, 1999-2007): he's one of my favorite characters from the show bcs he's so interesting to me. like he's so clearly depressed from the beginning of the show but no one really takes him seriously.

Donnie Darko (Donnie Darko, 2001): mostly based off the therapy scene where the therapist asks donnie "do you feel alone right now?". it's got a bunch of songs from the 80's but also some more recent that i think match the vibe still.

Fiona Gallagher (Shameless, 2011-2021): my girl just gets overlooked all the time and the show literally never let her be happy. so i've made her a playlist bcs i appreciate her.

Jake Peralta (Brooklyn Nine Nine, 2013-2021): just a bunch of songs that i think jake would jam to plus songs that he likes in the actual show.

Jughead Jones (Riverdale, 2017-2023): yes i watch riverdale unironically. yes, i know it's bad. idc. jughead is my favorite character and so i've made a playlist with a bunch of songs that either i think he'd like or that he referenced on the show.

Laurie (Little Women, 2019): completely based off the scene where laurie confesses his crush on jo. so just a yearning/unrequited love playlist based off this quote.

Lou Bloom (Nightcrawler, 2014): based off the tense and synth heavy soundtrack from the movie. i included a few songs from the soundtrack but also added some other rock or synth-y songs.

Patrick Bateman (American Psycho, 2000): i laughed audibly in the movie when patrick was listening to walking on sunshine so i needed to make a playlist of other songs i think he would listen to, not because he liked them but just because he needs to "fit in".

Peeta Mellark (Hunger Games Series, 2012-2015): what a man. truly. this is just a bunch of songs that give off peeta vibes to me.

Travis Bickle (Taxi Driver, 1976): a playlist that i organized to play like a decent into madness, akin to travis' in the movie. this playlist includes some older songs from the likes of Frank Sinatra and Johnny Cash but also relatively more modern bands like Radiohead. In fact, i think this playlist is mostly Radiohead.

Troy Bolton (High School Musical Trilogy, 2006-2008): made a 2000's (mostly r&b playlist) that i feel like troy would like. this is solely made bcs i've seen this trilogy an ungodly amount of times and so i feel qualified to make these assumptions. also this all started bcs like 2-3 years a go i saw an edit for troy with the song because of you by neyo and i was never the same.

MCU/DC characters:

Bruce Wayne/Batman (The Batman, 2022): this is my favorite depiction of batman, solely because he's so unapologetically emo and a loser. so i made him a playlist that he can listen to while he applies his matte black jefree starr eye shadow in the bat cave or smth.

Miles Morales (The Spiderverse Film Series, 2018-present): the BEST spiderman that there ever was. i was forever changed when i saw across the spider verse and so i immediately put together a bunch of songs that i think miles would listen to while he swings between buildings.

Peter Parker (The Sam Raimi Trilogy, 2002-2007): toby's depiction of peter is one of my favs so it only felt right that i make him a playlist.

Peter Quill/Star Lord (2014-present): songs that peter would play on his walkman. most songs are canon to the movies and others are my own suggestions.

Sam Wilson (Captain America: Brave New World, 2025): this is MY captain america. idc what nobody says.

Tony Stark/Iron Man (2008-2019): my favorite marvel character actually. so it only makes sense that i would have to make him a rock playlist.

Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch (Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, 2022): based off the quote where she says "This is me being reasonable." bcs first off the way that elizabeth olsen delivered that line was perfect but also bcs it shows just how unhinged wanda became bcs of all her loss. so i made a sad/angry/desperate combo playlist for her.

tv shows:

Dance Academy (2010-2013): if you are unfamiliar with this show, it is an australian tv show that is set in an elite dance academy/high school.

"i just want so badly to be rid of you." - this was uttered by our main character tara while in an argument with her long time on again/off again boyfriend, christian. this line specifically has been stuck in my head for the better part of a decade and so i've made a playlist that displays the toxicity of their relationship and what led up to tara saying this.

"you all want me to fail." - this playlists is for abigail armstrong. she starts off the show being the bully/mean girl of the show but it's revealed later on that she's struggling with an ED and various other problems. she's a perfectionist as well so this playlist ig encapsulates all of that.

Glee (2009-2015): all my favorite glee covers in release order.

Mr. Robot (2015-2019): based off of elliot mostly and the type of music i think he'd like.

You (2018-2025): made this playlist for joe when season 4 came out and i'm still not done with season 5 (i'm trying to pace myself) so i may add some songs depending on what they play in the soundtrack.

movies:

Black Swan (2010): playlist for the main character nina and her decent into madness at the hands of her own crazed perfectionism

Bones and All (2022): just a bunch of songs that describe the feelings of the 2 main characters of the movie.

Challengers (2024): based off the crazy hype soundtrack from the movie. it includes some songs from the soundtrack but also other artists who make house/club music (i.e. Charli XCX and The Dare).

Girl, Interrupted (1999): playlist was made with daisy in mind but honestly the songs fit for everyone in the movie

The Great Gatsby (2013): based on the vibes of Gatsby's parties through his eyes as he's pining after daisy. some older songs from Dean Martin or Frank Sinatra but also more modern songs from Lorde or Lana Del Rey.

Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind (2004): songs based on the dynamic/relationship of the main characters, clementine and joel.

Dead Poets Society (1989): just the general vibes of the movie. the music doesn't match the setting of the movie tho - so not much 50s music in here. but its for the vibes, trust.

Good Will Hunting (1997):

"it's not your fault." - this playlist was kind of just based on the quote from the movie. it's more of a daddy issues playlist than anything.

will hunting <3 - just some songs that i feel like will would play on his walkman or songs that describe him

Gone Girl (2014):

"i knew he wanted cool girl." - playlist based off of amy dunne and how it felt to be playing "cool girl" for so long

nick dunne - if u couldn't guess based off the name, this is just a playlist from the perspective of nick dunne in the movie

Fight Club (1999): songs that i believe reflect the Narrators mental state in the movie. as a super sleep deprived person (i slept for 3 hours last night), i feel i'm qualified to make this playlist.

The Holdovers (2023): playlist based off the found family vibes of the movie, using only songs from the time period (or before) and songs from the actual soundtrack.

The Hunt (2012): if ur unfamiliar, this movie is about a man who is falsely accused of being a pedophile and the fallout of that. so this playlist is a collection of songs that give off that devestating feeling of no one believing you.

The Iron Claw (2023): songs based off the movies ending - bittersweet.

Joker Duology (2019-2024):

"all i have are negative thoughts" - a playlist for arthur fleck in the first joker movie. has some songs from the soundtrack and other songs that i felt matched the time period and vibes.

folie à deux - based off of the relationship between harley and artuhr in joker 2. has a lot of older music like from fred astaire and frank sinatra. just bcs i felt it matched the vibes of the movie.

Lady Bird (2017): just a playlist based off the mother-daughter relationship in this movie. and also kind of just how it feels to be growing up and approaching graduation but just not wanting to.

May December (2023): this movie truly was not talked about as much as it should have been. but anyways this playlist is mostly based off of the character joe.

Mother (2020): this is a playlist inspired by this japanese movie about a boy and his relationship to his hot mess of a mother. basically a playlist for those with mommy issues

Pearl (2022): mostly based off the final monologue from pearl in the red dress, specifically when she says "i don't feel well." there are a few older songs but mostly they are modern.

Prisoners (2013): the movie starring jake gyllenhaal and hugh jackman. it's mostly based on jake's character, detective loki, but i think it reflects the entire vibe of the movie.

Rush Hour Trilogy (1998-2007): these movies were honestly so hilarious that i needed to make a playlist for lee and carter together. guess which songs represent each character.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010): a scott pilgrim inspired playlist that includes songs from the original soundtrack

Sound of Metal (2019): this is a movie about a drummer who loses his hearing and how he deals with it. this is just a bunch of mildly depressing rock songs.

A Streetcar Named Desire (1951): based mostly off of blanche's character. there's some older music (i.e. doris day, lesley gore, ella fitzgerald) but also some more modern music (i.e. mitski, fleetwood mac, ethel cain)

books:

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: a mostly instrumental playlist based on how the book made me feel. kind of nostalgic and melancholy, but also wistful? idk, just check it out.

Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov: playlist based on the disgusting "relationship" between lolita and humbert humbert.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Otessa Moshfegh: based on the narrator of the story who is so depressed and deeply unsatisfied with her life that she chooses to try and sleep for a whole year (almost uninterrupted) by taking copious amounts of sleeping pills. tbh i feel like doing this everyday so i had to make a playlist about it.

Romeo & Juliet by William Shakespeare: just a bunch of songs that tell the story of a tragic romance

untitled manuscript by Me: I started trying to write a book because I got super bored one day and these are some songs that i either mention by name or i feel like match the vibes of the book/main character (it's quite eclectic)

games:

Mouthwashing (2024): saw an edit to this game with headlock by imogen heap and it was so perfect i had to find other songs that matched the eerie/unsettling vibes of the movie just as well.
