Whatever Happened To '80s Child Star Jenny Lewis? - Grunge

Having established herself as a star of television, film, and music, Jenny Lewis turned to another medium in 2019: comic books. That year, Archie Comics brought back an obscure 1990s title, “Jughead’s Time Police,” in which the crown-loving title character travels through history righting wrongs. In reviving this ’90s cultural relic, editors decided to write in a pen-and-ink cameo from another fondly remembered person from that decade — Lewis, a child and teen actor in that time. 

In the fifth issue of the run, drummer Jughead and his Riverdale friends participate in a “battle of the bands” and encounter Lewis. “I was just strolling by, wanted to wish you good luck,” Lewis says in a speech bubble (via Rolling Stone). “Riverdale… I could probably live here.” Jughead and the other Archie characters go starstruck, calling Lewis, variously, “songstress of our collective feelings,” “the fashion idol of my youth,” and “all-around babe.” Lewis, who authorized the appearance, thanked issue writer Sina Grace on X, formerly known as Twitter, remarking that her line of dialogue “I could probably live here” is “one of my three epitaph choices.”
