Who is Doc Gimmick?

Doc Gimmick is a supporting character from Magazine Enterprises' Funnyman, a Golden Age comedy series. He appears alongside Funnyman (Larry Davis) and June Farrell in the zany, humor-driven adventures created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.

Few Golden Age curiosities carry a pedigree quite like Doc Gimmick β€” a character born in 1948 from the minds of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the legendary duo who gave the world Superman. Emerging in the pages of Funnyman from Magazine Enterprises, Doc Gimmick keeps lively company with the likes of Funnyman, Larry Davis, and June Farrell, placing him squarely in one of the more offbeat corners of Golden Age comics. Though his catalog footprint is small β€” just five appearances spread across Funnyman, Siegel and Shuster's Funnyman, and Super Weird Heroes β€” the fact that his presence echoes across nearly seven decades of publishing history speaks to an enduring fascination with this era's overlooked gems. For collectors drawn to the creative legacy of Siegel and Shuster beyond their most famous creation, Doc Gimmick is a delightful and rare find.
