Laurie Lake

Laurie Lake made her debut in the pages of Wilbur Comics #24 in 1949, brought to life by the talented Bill Woggon during comics' beloved Golden Age — and she's been turning up in Archie Publications' cheerful, sun-drenched universe ever since. With a publishing presence stretching all the way to 2022, she's one of those quietly enduring figures who kept popping up across flagship titles like Laugh Comics and Pep Comics, sharing pages with the likes of Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, and Jughead Jones — the very heart of Riverdale's social scene. Six of her appearances carry key-issue significance, a testament to the collector interest she's quietly accumulated over more than seven decades. If you love the warmth and wit of Archie's Golden Age roots, Laurie Lake is exactly the kind of discovery that makes digging through back-issue bins so rewarding.
