The character first appeared in Bagge's self-published ''Comical Funnies'' in 1981. In the 1990s Buddy became an iconic symbol of Seattle Subculture, underground culture, with the character being associated with slackerdom and the grunge movement, something which his creator sees as fairly unintentional on his part.

Starting in 1949, Buddy Lee was produced as a 13-inch hard plastic doll. Although female versions of the so-called Betty Lee doll surface from time to time, there was no official ...
