Little Pete

A Golden Age original with genuine staying power, Little Pete made their debut in Adventure Comics #166 in 1951 and has been popping up across DC's universe ever since — a remarkable span stretching all the way to 2024. With appearances spread across Superman, Sugar & Spike, and Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane, this character has kept some of the most iconic company in comics history, sharing pages with Superman himself, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen. Forty appearances and a key issue to their name make Little Pete a quietly persistent presence in DC's Golden Age legacy — the kind of discovery that rewards the dedicated collector digging through the silver-spined back-issue bins.
