Porky Pig

Few comic characters can claim a Golden Age debut and still be gracing pages in 2025, but Porky Pig has done exactly that — launching in Dell's Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Comics #1 back in 1941, with Win Smith among the creators who brought him to the printed page. Over 84 years and 236 catalogued appearances, he's become one of comics' most enduring funny-animal icons, headlining his own long-running Porky Pig series while keeping lively company with the likes of Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, Petunia Pig, and Sylvester. With seven key issues to his name, collectors have plenty of reasons to dig into his run — this is a character whose comic legacy is as deep and warm as the Golden Age itself.
