Technically first appeared in Archie's Madhouse #34 (August 1964), but only as a doodle at the top of the cover, as a sort of Alfred E. Neuman-type mascot.
A completely redesigned version, as an annoying, white-boy-fro guitar-strumming hippie, briefly became a regular in comic book Josie, starting with issue #36 (September 1968).
In the "Song of Love" and "The Pick Up" stories of issue #41 (Feb. 1969), he gets a bonafide hit single after rich jerk Alexander Cabot III hires him to write a love song he can use to woo Josie. But Didit writes a song about how much Cabot loves himself. And Cabot is such a narcissist, he loves the song and gets it recorded and played on the air (everyone considers it a comedy record except Cabot).
Later, a buck-toothed, different-looking version appeared in the Archie's Madhouse comic book, where he was in a band with his brothers, The Mad House Glads, which got their own comic book series from 1970-1974
