MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1950. Stopped in 1954 after 22 issues.

The title character is an adolescent, bumbling boy, who, inadvertently, creates chaos, craziness, and disaster where he goes. He lives with his family in Centerville, and mostly we follow his (mis)adventures with his buddies and his girlfriends.

The series is a spinoff from a radio situation comedy show named The Aldrich Family (1939-1953), and a TV series (1949-1953).
