The Flintstones was a classic animated television series that aired from 1960 to 1966, and it also spawned a series of comic books. The first Flintstones comic was published by Dell Comics in 1961, and the series transitioned to Gold Key Comics in late 1962 and continued until 1970. The comic books featured Fred and Wilma Flintstone along with Barney and Betty Rubble in a variety of comedic adventures that were similar in style to the TV show. Notable artists who worked on the series include Harvey Eisenberg and Pete Alvarado.
Throughout both the Dell and Gold Key series, the Flintstones (and Rubbles) were often accompanied by supporting characters such as Pebbles Flintstone, Bamm-Bamm Rubble and Dino the Dinosaur. These characters would often become involved in the Flintstones’ wacky adventures, either as helpers or as sources of comic relief. Overall, the Flintstones comics have been a beloved part of the franchise’s history and have provided readers with countless laughs over the years.
