Line 1:
'''Forsythe Pendleton "Jughead" Jones''' is a [[fictional character]] in [[Archie Comics]], first appearing in [[December]], [[1941]]. Though his full name is given as ''Forsythe Pendleton Jones'', he rarely uses it and is better known by his nick-name ''Jughead Jones'', or simply as ''Jughead'' to his friends. He is the son of '''Timothy and Gladys Jones'''. He has a white [[sheepdog]] named Hot Dog, and is occasionally portrayed as having a younger sister '''Forsythia "Jellybean" Jones'''.
Jughead, who is almost always seen wearing his crown-shaped gray felt hat with has two pins on it, is Archie's best friend and the 'weird one' of [[Archie Andrews (comics)|Archie's]] social circle. Though he's only regularly pursued by [[Big Ethel]], Jughead does his best to avoid girls- unless a free meal is involved. Except for hassling [[Reggie Mantle]], eating is Jughead's number one hobby. Though he sports a pot belly after particularly large meals, Jughead is as skinny as a twig. As a consequence of his eating habits, Jughead is also a preferred customer of most of [[Riverdale (Archie Comics)|Riverdale]]'s food establishments, especially [[Pop Tate]]'s '''Choklit Shoppe''', and a very respected food critic.
One of the common misconceptions about Jughead is that he is a [[misogynist]]. This is not so. In one of the stories in a Jughead digest magazine, there are quite a few girls who are after Jughead (and not just [[Big Ethel]]), probably attracted by his aloof and uninterested attitude towards them. In another story, he describes that the reason why he does not chase after girls is because of a childhood heartbreak, before he moved to [[Riverdale (Archie Comics)|Riverdale]].
