Li'l Jinx

Li'l Jinx is a mischievous, tomboyish young girl whose endless curiosity and boundless energy lead her into one comic misadventure after another. Debuting in Pep Comics #62 in 1947, she stars in lighthearted, humor-driven strips centered on childhood hijinks.

Few characters in the Archie universe have shown the staying power of Li'l Jinx — a Golden Age original who first charmed readers in Pep Comics #63 back in 1947, brought to life by creator Bill Vigoda. Nearly eight decades of continuous publishing is a remarkable testament to her appeal, and with 1793 catalog appearances and 29 collector-recognized key issues, she's far more than a footnote in Archie history. She's woven into the very fabric of that sunny, small-town world, sharing pages across beloved titles like Archie's Girls Betty and Veronica, Laugh Comics, and Life with Archie alongside icons like Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, and Jughead Jones. If you love the warmth and wit of classic Archie publishing across every era from the Golden Age to today, Li'l Jinx is absolutely worth a deeper look.
