I have a few old archie’s myself in which Josie was “Josie Jones” I don’t think they are related though, I think this is just the writers are so unimaginative that they have to repeatedly use last names over and over because I’m positive a that lots of the one time characters were named “Jones” too.

Also I’ve read both of the battle of the bands stories and the second one was even worse. First they start out all friendly, then they start getting mad at each other, then make up again for no reason. One part I found Josie doing a guitar solo and then saying afterwards when the crowd is completely silent, something like “I guess you’re not ready for that, but you’re kids will love it” Is it just me or is that a completely unfunny attempt at using that line from “Back to the Future”

They used song lyrics recently in another of the titles, so I think it was just the writer. I too was very disappointed by this story… it had a lot of potential that was wasted.

I knew there was some kind of relationship between Bingo and the Archie gang. It has been a very long time since I read them. I accept your correction and apologize for my mistake. So,does this mean Josie is a cousin to Jughead AND Bingo? I definitely have an old Digest with her as Josie Jones, and Jughead is a Jones….
I just bought and read part 2 of the Battle of the Bands and was very disappointed by it. Even if I was still a kid I don’t think I would have liked it. Was It too much of a challenge to come up with some Lyrics for them to sing? Having the static pictures of them in performance just comes off as a lot of lazy writing. There’s at least twenty Archie songs,and thirty songs used in the Josie movie and tv series. Would it have been so difficult to do a bit of research and acquired the rights to use them?

Whoa! Archie can’t be Bingo Wilkin’s Cousin because I know for a fact that in a few of my archie’s Jughead is Bingo’s cousin. Unless Jughead and Archie are related (which i very highly doubt) this doesn’t make any sense

I always wondered how anyone could visually tell the difference between Alexander and Reggie. Now I know.
Will we finally find out if Josie James?McCoy?JONES is related to Forsythe P.”Jughead” Jones? I once heard that they were cousins but never ever saw a comic that substantiated the claim. I know Archie’s mother’s sister is the mother of that Wilkin’s boy. Has anyone even seen a Pussycats Mother?

Given how much my 3 year old loves watching Josie on Boomerang, I may have to get these for him.
