We Met These Kool Kats a Couple of Years Ago...
...so it's high (in more ways than one) time we checked in on the slackers they called "beatniks" back in the 1960s...
This never-reprinted story from Dell's Kookie #1 (1962) by writer John Stanley and artist Bill Williams was part of an attempt to produce an on-going series featuring young adults in a (then) contemporary setting.
Bongo and Bop were the slackers of the ensemble, like Dobie Gillis' Maynard G Krebs amped up to 11!
Note: this was the only time their real names (George and Robert) were ever used!
Sadly the title only lasted two issues!
