Many Richie Rich stories end with Richie and his Dad chuckling away at a one-liner one of them has made about whatever hijinks have just transpired. These “jokes” are not really ha-ha funny situations. They can often be amusing, or extremely pun-y, but are certainly not humorous enough to merit the guffawing going on. UNTIL THIS ONE. 🙂
I literally cannot stop laughing during the last two pages of this story; it doesn’t matter how many times I’ve read it, I laugh every single time! And the first time I read it, I was in tears! Now that I have given it such a build-up, you may not laugh at all, but I think you will because it is FREAKIN’ funnnnnny!!!! Put your engine into giggle gear and enjoy this hilarity! HEE HEEE HEEEE!
Oh good lord, I’m crying again! Tee hee hee heeeeee!!! What did you think? Did it live up to the hype? I must now read it again!

I had been the editor of Richie Rich for all its Harvey existence and also, with Warren Kremer, had
been its creator. My son Seth brought this to my attention and I am happy to say that the writer
was Lennie Herman and the artist was Ernie Colon, and I am thrilled that you could have a favorite.

Ah, that SidneyPain–spoiled my daydream. I had myself convinced that I wrote as well as drew that story. But it’s too funny not to have come from the incredible pen of Lenny Herman. Thanks guys, for a lovely moment of memories.
