THE MANY LOVES OF DOBIE GILLIS comic book series was based on a CBS television series that ran from September of 1959 to June of 1963. The series centered on Dobie Gillis, a typical American teenager, who struggles to gain popularity, money, and the attention of beautiful women. Along with his beatnik buddy Maynard G. Krebs, Dobie is constantly up to some sort of shenanigans to find a shortcut to the approval and wealth he wants without actually having to do actual work. The television show was funny and a moderate success, lasting for four seasons, so it was only natural that someone would publish a comic book based on the series.
D.C. Comics began publishing their adaptation of THE MANY LOVES OF DOBIE GILLIS in June of 1960.
The comic would last a total of twenty-six issues and would highlight the talents of Bob Oskner, Mort
Drucker, Henry Boltinoff, Bernard Baily, Win Mortimer and other staples of the D.C. bullpen at the time. THE MANY LOVES OF DOBIE GILLIS was one of the rare series that was not only funny but also wise, witty and ultimately progressive for its time.
THIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE IN BOTH HARDCOVER AND TRADE PAPERBACK EDITIONS
