Riverdale's Eating Disorder Support Group

Fortunately, teenagers in the Archie Universe don't have any body image issues, so it's really not a problem when Jughead's mom spends several pages ragging on his physical appearance:




Ah, parental support. So kind, so loving.

Fortunately, Jughead knows that his circle of friends will be much, much more supportive, and that they will not judge him by his body type:




"Jughead, you're an unbearable freak and we can't stand the sight of you!!" Ahh, peer group love...

Jughead might as well be the Elephant Man in Jughead #257 (1976).
