About the series
My Girl Pearl is a 1950s Marvel romance comic that ran for eleven issues, following the adventures of its pining, boy-crazy teen protagonist. The series was primarily written by Stan Lee and featured the clean, cheerful artwork of Dan DeCarlo and Stan Goldberg, defining the lighthearted, gag-a-page tone of the era's teen humor comics. It stands as a charming, period-specific snapshot of Marvel's pre-superhero identity, exploring youthful crushes and social mishaps through a distinctly 1950s lens.
