Publication history
The most notable issue was 1962's #23, which featured the second appearance of Josie, Melody and Pepper, a week after the debut of the She's Josie comic book.[1] Josie and Melody would go on to become two-thirds of Josie and the Pussycats in issue #45 of Josie's own title.
In 1992, a year after the 32-page regular-sized comic book was canceled, a new Archie's Pals 'n' Gals Double Digest title was launched, which ran until being canceled in 2011 with issue #146.
