Knowledge Waits is a feature where I just share some bit of comic book history that interests me. Today, I discuss how Archie’s Christmas Stocking has played a surprisingly major role in the history of Archie Comics. In the latest installment of our weekly Archie Sundays spotlight on Archie news and previews, I noted that this week marks the release of Archie’s annual Archie’s Christmas Stocking. Looking into the history of the comic book, though, I was struck by just how important it was to Archie’s history.It all started in 1949 when Archie Comics released its first Annual comic book, titled, appropriately enough, Archie Annual #1. At a time when comic books still cost 10 cents per issue, a 25 oversized annual magazine was still a big deal.
