Little did these early 1940's superheroes suspect that the red-headed kid (or blonde as seen here) and his pal, Jughead, would eventually do to them and all of their cohorts what no Nazi or mad scientist or racketeer was ever able to do. Archie had premiered in PEP COMICS but his stories were soon invading the other MLJ titles, also. This ad--featuring Mister Justice, Steel Sterling, Black Hood and the long forgotten Sgt. Boyle--is for Archie's debut in JACKPOT COMICS.
Quite an entrance.... and BIZARRE mix of characters.
