. Dubbed "the poor little rich boy", Richie is the only child of fantastically wealthy parents and is the world's richest kid. He is so rich, his middle name is a dollar sign, $. During Harvey Comics' heyday from 1950 to 1982, Richie was the publisher's most popular character, eventually starring in over 50 separate titles, including the long-running comics ''Richie Rich'', ''Richie Rich Millions'', ''Richie Rich Dollars and Cents'', and ''Richie Rich Success Stories''. In 2011, Ape Entertainment began publishing a new licensed Richie Rich comic book series, taking the character in a very different, action-oriented, direction."'Richie Rich' Comics Return"

Publication history

Although created in 1953, Richie didn't have his own title until 1960. Once he did, however, he quickly became Harvey's most popular character, eventually starring in over fifty separate titles. The flagship, ''Richie Rich'', ran 254 issues from 1960 to 1991 (with a hiatus from 1982 to 1986), followed by a second volume that ran an additional 28 issues from 1991 to 1994. Other long-running titles were ''Richie Rich Millions'' (113 issues from 1961 to 1982), ''Richie Rich Dollars and Cents'' (109 issues from 1963 to 1982), and ''Richie Rich Success Stories'' (105 issues from 1964 to 1982). In 1972, Harvey realized that Richie was its most lucrative character, and introduced five new Richie Rich titles: ''Richie Rich Bank Book'', ''Richie Rich Diamonds'', ''Richie Rich Jackpots'', ''Richie Rich Money World'' and ''Richie Rich Riches''. By the mid-1970s, says historian Mark Arnold, "Richie was starring in 32 different titles every 60 days... Certainly Richie was the most successful feature in American comic books in the 1970s." Harvey ceased publishing in 1982, but started up again in 1986 under new ownership; this hiatus resulted in the cancelation of many titles. Richie (along with many of the Harvey characters) has been published only sporadically since 1994. Writers for the Richie Rich comic books and syndicated comic strip included

Character

Despite any negative stereotypes associated with his incredible wealth, Richie Rich is portrayed as unfailingly kind and charitable (in fact, his moniker is "the poor little rich boy"). He lives in an expensive mansion and owns at least two of everything money can buy. Richie appears to be around seven to ten years old and wears a waistcoat, a white shirt with an

For the Ape Entertainment comic book series debuting in 2011, the character was updated by emphasizing his altruistic side; "a mix of James Bond and

Supporting characters


Rich family

(first appearance ''Little Dot'' #3) * Mrs. Regina Rich (née Van Dough) – Richie's mother (first appearance ''Little Dot'' #1) * Aunt Noovo Rich (a pun on the French term '' nouveau riche'') – Richie's wealthy but very eccentric aunt who is crazy about posting signs. She has a tendency to show off her wealth. While few of Richie's aunts and uncles are clarified to be paternal or maternal, Aunt Noovo is known to be his paternal aunt making her Mr. Rich's sister. * Uncle Titus - Although just as wealthy as the rest of the family, Uncle Titus is fanatical about saving money. He typically wears the most threadbare of clothes and makes every conceivable effort to avoid spending money, to the extent that his house is equipped with an alarm that goes off if he carelessly leaves the house with "too much" money. Some in the family have nicknamed him "Tite-wad"(as in

of a professional football team known for its long losing streak. * Uncle Stormy – Another of Richie's uncles whom Richie initially mistakes for an impostor named Blackie Bludsoe in one issue. * Uncle Spender – Another uncle of Richie who squanders his money yet often realizes a profit on his extravagance. * Aunt Gussie – A formerly overweight aunt who slimmed down and decided to keep her new figure. * Aunt Surprise – A jovial aunt who brings Richie elaborate toys for Christmas and is imprisoned along with Richie, his parents, Cadbury, and Casper inside a magic lamp by the Meanie Genie. * Ezekiel Rich – Richie's nineteenth century ancestor whom Richie and Gloria met when they went back in time. He was arrested by the British as an enemy of the crown, but Richie came up with a way to save him. * Gabby – A cousin who talks incessantly, and became a salesman, only to discover it was not the best line of work for him. * Dollar – Rich family "Dollarmatian" dog (like a Dalmatian, but with dollar signs instead of spots).


Van Dough family

* Reginald "Reggie" Van Dough Jr. – Richie's mean, spoiled, maternal cousin, known for playing constant pranks on everyone, most notably Richie and his family, which causes his father to punish him. He treats his servants shabbily, often by calling them "peasant," which in turn causes them to call him "monster," but they swiftly correct themselves and call him Master (first appearance ''Little Dot'' #2). * Reginald Van Dough Sr. – Mrs. Rich's brother and Reggie's father. He is often angered with Reggie's non-stop pranks and often punishes him for them (usually by spanking). * Vanessa Van Dough – Mrs. Rich's sister-in-law and Reggie's mother. She is not as quick to punish Reggie for his pranks, but she doesn't tolerate Reggie's unabashed cruelty either. * Penny Van Dough – Reggie's baby sister. She talks only in "baby talk." The curl on her head is shaped like a dollar sign.


Richie's friends

* Gloria Glad – Richie's red haired girlfriend, notorious for her regular refusal of the many luxurious gifts Richie offers, and for her disdain for the open display of money, diamonds and other forms of wealth in Richie's household, despite his efforts to conceal it from her. Regardless, she always wins his attention in comparison to Mayda Munny. (first appearance ''Little Dot'' #33) Gloria's last name, for the 1994 live-action movie, was changed to Pazinski. * Mayda Munny – Mayda Munny (whose name is a play on the phrase "made of money") is Richie's snobby ravenette wannabe-girlfriend, who never wins his attention. Like the Riches and Van Doughs, her family is fabulously wealthy. Immensely jealous of Gloria, and often angry when her plans to snare Richie's attention backfire on her. Like Reggie, Mayda is snobbish and addresses those beneath her as "peasant". * Freckles and Pee-Wee Friendly – Richie's poor but most-prized friends (first appearance ''Little Dot'' #2), whose blue-jeaned playtime attire sharply contrasts Richie's bow-tied formal suit. Despite his working-class background, Freckles doesn't object to Richie's wealth the way Gloria does, and at times even enjoys it. Pee-Wee plays along with all of Freckles' and Richie's activities without ever saying a word. * Billy Bellhops – A redheaded boy who worked as a
bellhop A bellhop (North America), or hotel porter (carrier), porter (international), is a hotel employee who helps patrons with their luggage while check-in, checking in or out. Bellhops often wear a uniform (see bell-boy hat), like certain other Page (a ...
at his father's hotel. Premiered in "Richie Rich and Billy Bellhops" in 1977, but was short-lived. Created by Alfred Harvey's son Russel. * Timmy Time – An extraterrestrial boy who time-travels to present-day Earth with his robot friend Traveler (landing on the Riches' private beach) from the year 2019 in search of tholarine, a substance he needs for spaceship fuel back in 2019. He appeared only in ''Richie Rich Meets Timmy Time'' #1 (September 1977). Timmy Time was created by Ernie Colón as Mark Time. Colón's frustration at Mark Time being renamed Timmy Time and presented as a Richie Rich spin-off, when the original agreement had been that the character would debut in his own series, led him to abandon the project. * Jackie Jokers – A stand-up comedian and a friend of Richie Rich. * Jerry Jokers – Father of Jackie Jokers who often performs in comedy acts with his son.
