Squirrel Hill -- originating out of Skunk Hill in Haverhill, MA of Bob Montana's youth -- the source for the letter 'S' on Jughead's sweater -- here dropped in as the location Archie beats Jughead senselessly.
My favorite "everyone mistakenly thinks a major character offed themself" story from Archie Comics has to be 1988's "The Prints of Wails". Very beachy and sunshiny.
