The Ogre's Ode-Bats-1961


Orlando Busino perhaps? George Gladir went on at great length about how BATS was essentially panel cartoonist Busino's book and how wonderful he was. Somehow, the fact that they were making FUN of monsters allowed the BATS material to pass the Comics Code. The fact that the Archie's John Goldwater was then the Code's head may also have had something to do with that.

I bought Bats and Archie's Mad House for Busino's artwork. When he left Archie I stopped buying those comics.
