Richie Rich Diamonds #43

There's something endlessly charming about Richie Rich's particular brand of wealthy-kid priorities, and this 1979 Harvey issue captures it perfectly: surrounded by scattered diamonds, loose coins, stacks of cash, and an elaborate crane machine loaded with more gems than most people see in a lifetime, Richie beams with delight over a single red gumdrop, exclaiming "Finally… I got a gumdrop!" The cover gag is warm and genuinely funny, reminding readers that even the richest boy in the world just wants a little candy sometimes. At a big 52 pages, Richie Rich Diamonds #43 promises plenty of gem-themed fun — and as the spine puts it, every story is a gem.
