Richie Rich

I do.

I used to read those Richie Rich comics where you'd literally see him in like a sea of gold coins.

Yeah.

So

father was?

Where the kid had left and he had Richie Rich comics and I would be reading comics while there were men in armed guards who were in their 20s, you know, roaming the house.

And I don't know that I even processed that, really.

Wow.

It was supposed to be bolstered by whatever the...

What is it called? Harvey comics? The comics that have Richie Rich and shit? I mean, we got a Richie Rich character in this comic series.

That's true.

That's true.

But Richie Rich, the actual... property.

Yeah.

And like all those guys were from like Harvey comics and that was going to be a big part of the thing.

Wicket passes out, and then they both get dragged deep underwater where they wake up, and there's these weird people called the Squicks.

You're so right, Sunny.

[laughs] Okay, Richie Rich at the DMV.

Uh, sir, I don't actually have to have anybody with me.

I'm a millionaire, and therefore I can...

[laughs]

[laughs]

Another one of my childhood faves, Richie Rich.

Okay, next is Baby Ralph on The Great British Bake Off.

Okay

... of the, like, those really old school Harvey Co- Comics, where, like, it was like, "Oh, this is Richie Rich, and this is Casper, and this is, uh, Little Lulu." And they all, like, have their own little thing.

Mm-hmm.

And every now and then they might intersect.

Mm-hmm.

Right.

But by and large, like, Richie Rich is doing his own, uh, rich motherfucking shit.

[laughs]

Not, you know, like the superheroes.

Like I read like Archie and Richie Rich and more of like the kids comics.

Like I wasn't like, you know, I can't tell you like, you know, which run of Spider-Man is the best.

Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, it goes on and on.

So, for the homebrew ones, they made a Richie Rich, they made a Michael Jordan, so...

The thing is, Joe Cameco teamed up with Gary Stern, and they did the Daddy's Pinball, which later turned into Sega, which later turned into Stern.

But the point being, those two guys were the brains behind this move, we'll say, from one company name to another to another.

And like some of them were totally just disintegrating or holding on for life.

But there was a lot of Casper, The Family Ghost, Richie Rich, Archie, Batman, all sorts of comics in there.

I don't remember maybe the first specific one, but it was kind of like a grab bag that me and my sisters could just like kind of take whatever.

was still holding on and read.

Okay.

Yeah, so kind of like Richie Rich.

They

became both Guy Ritchie movies.

Yeah.

Go ahead.

I was just going to say, so kind of, you know, Richie Rich kind of followed in that with having Freckles and Pee Wee, the poor boys as his pals, you know.

And Gloria, too, I guess.
