Cubby

Born in the very first issue of Archie Comics back in 1942, Cubby is a genuine Golden Age original — there from the ground floor of one of American comics' most beloved and enduring publishers. Created by the legendary Bob Montana, this character has quietly persisted across an remarkable 81-year span, popping up most frequently in Super Duck Comics and the long-running Laugh Comics Digest family alongside icons like Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, and Veronica Lodge. With four key-issue appearances to their name and a debut that doubles as one of the most historically significant single issues in Archie history, Cubby is a rewarding discovery for any collector who loves tracing the deep roots of the Archie universe.
