About the series
From 1959 to 1963, Charlton Comics published Li'l Genius, a lighthearted 17-issue series centered on a clever young protagonist and his friends Ollie Orwell and Li'l Tomboy. The book was most often written by Joe Gill and Frank Johnson, with Frank Johnson and Jon D'Agostino handling the bulk of the artwork. This wholesome, kid-focused humor series offered a charming snapshot of early-1960s all-ages comics, driven by the dependable creative team that defined much of Charlton's output.
