Wiggles first appeared in Taffy Comics #1, published by Rural Home/Orbit Publications with a cover date of March, 1945. The first four issues were devoted to his book-length adventures (a format very unusual at the time, except in superhero groups such as The Justice Society of America or The Marvel Family). With the fifth (November, 1946), Taffy switched to Archie-style teenage humor starring a girl named, of all things, Taffy. One more Wonderworm story appeared in Toy Town Comics #5 (May, 1947), but that was the last of him.
