It began as a radio show in 1947 (the idea, some say, ÒborrowedÓ from a failed pitch the year
before), and spawned from there a TV show, books, films, and of course comics (Atlas #3-48;
1950-1955). The tales of a ditsy but well-meaning blonde and her assortment of slightly offbeat
friends, MY FRIEND IRMA was one of the most popular entertainment franchises of its time.
The concept itself has been ÒborrowedÓ many times since Ð in fact, shortly after ceasing
publication of MY FRIEND IRMA, Atlas magically came up with the idea for MY GIRL PEARL.
Amazing, isnÕt it? Mostly written by Stan Lee and drawn by Dan DeCarlo, this is a classic series
you don't want to miss Ð and since they surprisingly forgot to renew the copyrights, you don't
need to!This book was compiled with the best images currently available. That stated, these
comics are seventy years old. The best efforts have been made to make the pages as enjoyable
as possible but not every panel is perfect and some allowances for the age of the books need to
be considered when judging the overall contents.
THIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE IN BOTH HARD COVER AND TRADE PAPERBACK
FORMATS AS WELL AS IN FULL COLOR OR BLACK & WHITE
