Cherry's Jubilee #1-4 Adult Archie Swipe
The text discusses the comic series "Cherry's Jubilee," which debuted in 1992 as a spin-off of the adult comic "Cherry," created by Larry Welz and published by Last Gasp Comics. The series consists of four issues featuring various artists contributing stories. "Cherry" follows a character named Cherry, a high school student depicted as attractive, friendly, and sexually adventurous.
The comic's art style is reminiscent of Dan DeCarlo, known for his work on the Archie comics, leading to legal threats due to its close resemblance to the "Happy Teenager" genre. Notably, Welz created a parody titled "Vampironica," which lampooned Archie characters. While "Cherry's Jubilee" contains erotic content, it is also recognized for its humor and political commentary. Key characters include:
-
Cherry: The protagonist, characterized as bisexual and perpetually 18 years old.
-
Pepper: Cherry's mother, depicted similarly to her daughter, sharing her sexual appetite.
-
Ellie Dee: Cherry's best friend, who often finds herself in sexual situations due to her interest in technology.
-
Patty Melt: Another friend of Cherry, known for her eagerness in romantic pursuits.
-
Lola Palooza: A wealthy friend with interests in bondage. The comic has gained popularity in the underground comic scene and is credited with helping to revive the genre. The text concludes with a mention of comic file formats and recommendations for reading software.
