Who is Gumbo?

Gumbo is a character from the playful world of Gumby comics, appearing alongside Gumby, Pokey, and Gumba in Wildcard Ink titles. Debuting in L.A. Funnies #6 in 1983, Gumbo inhabits the same cheerful, offbeat universe as the iconic green clay figure.

Bubbling up from the Bronze Age pages of L.A. Funnies #6 in 1983, Gumbo is a Jerry Leibowitz creation who found a cozy niche in the cheerful, offbeat world of Wildcard Ink comics. With a catalog presence stretching a remarkable 24 years through to 2007, this character proved to have genuine staying power, popping up across Gumby, Gumby in 3-D, and the title where it all began. Sharing adventures alongside the likes of Gumby, Pokey, and Gumba, Gumbo inhabits a wonderfully playful corner of comics history — the kind of character that rewards the curious collector who digs just a little deeper into the lighter, more whimsical side of the medium.
