Argo Publishing 1956

Argo was a short lived publication venture that was created to publish comic books featuring newspaper characters that none of the larger comic companies were interested in.
Much of their output consisted of comics based on such newspaper soap opera characters as Merry Worth, Rex Morgan MD, and Judge Parker.
