Pep Comics

From 1948 to 1950, Bell Features published eight issues of Pep Comics, a lively anthology series that showcased a rotating roster of talent including Bob Montana, Al Fagaly, and Bill Vigoda. The title offered a mix of humor and adventure strips, serving as a snapshot of post-war Canadian comics before the industry's mid-century shift. While not as long-lived as its American namesake, this run is a compact artifact of Bell Features' final years, capturing the work of notable cartoonists in a compact, energetic package.
