Jeffy

Straight out of the early Bronze Age, Jeffy made his comics debut in 1973 under the pen of the legendary Bil Keane, stepping onto the page in Can I Have a Cookie? and finding a long home across titles like Love, the Family Circus and the pages of the Calgary Herald Comic Book. With a catalog presence stretching nearly four decades to 2012, this little character has shown remarkable staying power in the world of newspaper-strip comics collections. Along the way, Jeffy has shared panels with a wonderfully eclectic crowd — from fellow kid Billy to classic adventure icons like Buck Rogers and Wilma Deering — making his corner of the comics world a charming crossroads of the wholesome and the adventurous. For collectors with a soft spot for the warm, slice-of-life side of Bronze Age comics, Jeffy is a delightful find.
