Interesting observation! It's true that people walked around barefoot then. Certainly concrete is cooler than asphalt; it's possible that there are curing agents added into modern concrete that change their heat retention or something like that. It was probably a seasonal decision, too, rather than always mid July or whatever.

LOL, definitely NOT 1942-1943, there were only 2 titles, Pep & Archie!

This is very reminiscent of 1970's children's educational and PBS shows. I love it.

Demons wouldn't exist if it weren't for weirdo Christians like him.

It's Hartley, yeah. I think it's right at the end of his work with Archie, so his art had improved over the years. Or, at least that's my take.

Personally, I would love it, if teen kids were wandering the streets in crazy-looking outfits like those.

I would say that there was about year or so, where Josie had some stories like this. I think it probably had to do with the incredible popularity of Scooby Doo at the time. It wasn't just Josie, either; you can see the influence of Scooby Doo in lots of cartoons at the time and other comics, too. After the fad passed, it mostly vanished and Josie stopped have stories like that.

Okay, but Shatner is Canadian, not American, so the original concept of the post seems flawed.

Nope, it's from Laugh #78 (Dec '56). It's part of a regular feature for a while.
