Sugar Bear

Debuting in the pages of Care Bears #20 in 1989, Sugar Bear is an Archie Comics creation brought to life by Angelo De Cesare and Howie Post at the dawn of the Modern Age. With appearances spanning a remarkable thirty years across beloved digest staples like Archie's Double Digest Magazine and Archie's Story & Game Digest Magazine, this character has quietly kept some genuinely iconic company — sharing pages with the likes of Jughead Jones, Fred Flintstone, and Moose Mason. A rare find with only eight catalogued appearances, Sugar Bear is the kind of deep-cut discovery that makes flipping through old digests such a rewarding treasure hunt.
