I started a post over in the Lounge that brought this character to mind.

This is Harvey Comics, the people who gave us Casper, Wendy, Richie Rich, Little Audrey, and Baby Huey.

The imagery stems from religion, from the horns down to the magic diapers. I think I read that it once extended to the feet. Original concept drawings had him with cloven hooves.

Even as a kid I wondered who his parents were. I'm surprised he never got the attention of the religious right.
