Katy Keene
Katy Keene, a character created by Bill Woggon, has appeared in several comic book series published by Archie Comics since 1945. She is a model/actress/singer marketed by the publisher as "America's Queen of Pin-Ups and Fashions". Readers were encouraged to submit original drawings of outfits and accessories for her and her friends to wear, as well as designs for automobiles, homes, interiors, rocket ships, trailers and boats. These designs were used in the comics with credit given to published submissions. Many issues featured paper dolls of Katy in various costumes. The character was ranked 57th in ''Comics Buyer's Guide's'' "100 Sexiest Women in Comics" list. ==Publication history== Katy Keene was introduced in ''Wilbur Comics'' #5 in the summer of 1945, and appeared in subsequent issues of ''Wilbur'' and various anthology comic series in the 1940s including ''Archie'', ''Jughead'', ''Betty and Veronica'' and ''Ginger'', eventually receiving her own title in 1949 which ran for 12 years. Specials such as ''Katy Keene Pin Up Parade'' and ''Katy Keene Fashion Book Magazine'', Annuals and specials including ''Katy Keene Spectacular'' (1956), "Glamour" (1957) and ''Charm'' (1958), continued through the 1950s, but the character was not seen for about 20 years after the early 1960s. In the book ''From Girls to Grrrlz: A History of Women's Comics from Teens to Zines'' by Trina Robbins Katy Keene is called a Bettie Page look-alike. "... but the resemblance ended there. Katy Keene was no bimbo and she had a good job (she was a movie star.)" 〔Robbins, Trina. (1999) ''From Girls to Grrrlz: A History of Women's Comics from Teens to Zines.'' Chapter 1. San Francisco: Chronicle Books.〕
