Jughead: The Hunger Volume 3

Jughead: The Hunger Vol. 3 (Judhead The Hunger)Jughead: The Hunger Vol. 3 by Frank Tieri
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

With Jellybean in the clutches of Reggie Mantle and his new pack, Jughead, Archie, and Betty go in with guns blazing. But what of Milton Doiley and his unholy creation, Frankenmoose?

Well, the Archie gang really saw me coming with their 50% off sale. Knowing that the sale was almost over, I snapped up a few more books, this one included.

This volume had some action but was primarily setup for the what is coming up, namely Jughead: The Hunger vs Vampironica. Hiram Lodge wants to clear his daughter's name by any means necessary, employing Milton Doiley, among others, to eliminate Jughead, Archie, and the Cooper Clan.

While there wasn't a ton of forward momentum in this volume, there were a lot of tantalizing morsels, hints of future stories. I guess my point is I'm sticking with the series. And why not? Frank Tieri's writing is still top notch, as is the art.

While my initial enthusiasm has waned a bit, Jughead: The Hunger continues to entertain. 3.5 out of 5 werewolves.
