PEP Comic #224

Pep Comic Issue 224 includes the story “Archie in Father Knows Beast”. Archie’s dad takes one look at Hot Dog, the big shaggy dog Archie says is full of love, and wants nothing to do with him, calling the pup a “fur shedder” and even suggesting he’s an alien from another planet! But the more Archie’s dad complains, the more Hot Dog piles on the affection, tackling him in his armchair, licking his face, and fetching slippers he doesn’t want while Archie insists the pup is just being playful. Can Hot Dog’s sloppy charm ever win over Archie’s grumpy dad? Other stories in this issue include “Dilton in Voice Coach”, “Li'l Jinx in Penny Wise”, “Betty and Me in Who's A Crab?”, and more. Originally running from 1940 all the way into the '80s, PEP was the platform for Archie's first appearance in 1941 and introduced many of the Riverdale citizens that the world still follows over 80 years later.
