As stated on the page for Pep Comics # 47, "Originally credited "George Harrison?" on pencils and "Clem Weisbecker?" on ink. The artwork, like the rounded inking and especially the apricot-like ears with large rounded outer edge are identical to his signed Boy Buddies story in Hangman #8. So most probably all done by Harrison. Stories signed by Clem/Pen have long narrow faces and ears, with more angular inklines."

Note that it is possible that some art has been altered for the Canadian market.
