Genio

Genio burst onto the pages of Pumby #200 in 1961, a Silver Age creation from the Spanish publisher Editorial Valenciana and the imagination of cartoonist Palop. Rooted in the beloved Pumby anthology — a cornerstone of Spanish comics for young readers — Genio shares those colorful pages with a charming cast including Becerrín, Monucho, Plumita, Conejín, and Bajito, making for lively, character-rich issues that collectors still seek out today. With 56 catalogued appearances across a run stretching into the mid-1960s and two key issues already on collectors' radar, Genio is a rewarding discovery for anyone exploring the rich, often-overlooked world of mid-century Spanish comics.
