On that note, why would you call a series "Happy Comics"? It wasn't just the Americans using archaic words for comic book names. Two British humour anthologies launched in the late 1930s had similarly old fashioned names, even for that time period. The Dandy Comic, and The Beano Comic. Both dropped the word Comic from their names in 1950, The Beano still exists today and The Dandy only folded in December 2012. Beano means feast. Dandy means very good, as in the phrase "fine and dandy". Neither are names that would be chosen nowadays.
