'Richie Rich' Comics Introduces New, Even Gayer Character

NEW YORK—DC Comics executives announced Tuesday that their upcoming revival of the popular Harvey Comics title Richie Rich would introduce a new, even gayer character to the popular series. “With the addition of Richie’s visiting cousin Mitchell Happy in the first three issues, readers can expect to meet the Richie Rich universe’s gayest character yet,” said spokesperson Thomas Young, adding that Mitchell would be even more overtly flamboyant than characters like Jackie Jokers, Uncle Worry, and the Riches’ longtime butler, Cadbury. “If readers thought Richie’s friends Freckles and Pee-Wee Friendly were as gay as this comic could get, they’ve got another thing coming.” Young also teased the addition of Wendy the Witch’s stunningly new butch friend Steph.
