The Jetsons was a classic animated television series that aired from 1962 to 1963, and it also spawned a series of comic books. The first Jetsons comic was published by Gold Key Comics in 1963, and the series continued until 1970. These comic books followed the same format as the television show, depicting the Jetson family’s comic adventures in a milieu of futuristic technology. Various artists and writers contributed to the series, most notably Tony Strobl.
In their stories, the Jetsons were often accompanied by supporting characters such as Rosie the Robot and Mr. Spacely. These characters would often become involved in the Jetsons’ wacky adventures, either as helpers or as sources of comic relief. The stories were aimed at a younger audience and often had a moral lesson at the end. The Jetsons comic books were very popular during their time and continue to be cherished by fans of the show and collectors of vintage comic books. A cover gallery of Jetsons comics can be found here.
