Skeezix

Few characters in comics carry the weight of genuine American nostalgia quite like Skeezix, who made their catalog debut in Popular Comics #71 in 1942 during the Golden Age, sharing pages with the beloved Walt Wallet. Born from the hands of Zack Mosley and Boody Rogers, this figure has proven quietly enduring — with a publishing footprint stretching all the way from 1942 to 2003, a remarkable 61-year span that speaks to a lasting place in readers' hearts. Today, Skeezix finds a fitting home in the thoughtful, archival spirit of Drawn & Quarterly, appearing in their Sampler Autumn 2003 and the celebrated Nemo: The Classic Comics Library — exactly the kind of company a character of genuine historical pedigree deserves.
