'''Gold Digger''' is a [[Long Runners|long-running]] US comic from [[Antarctic Press]] with [[Animesque|manga-inspired art]], written and drawn by Fred Perry. The first appearance of the characters was in the anthology title '''Mangazine''' Vol. 2 #11 (September, 1991). They then got their own eponymous 4-issue miniseries (September 1992-March 1993). This proved successful enough to make ''Gold Digger'' Vol. 2 an ongoing. 50 regular issues were published between July 1993 and June 1999, plus a number of annuals. These issues were mostly in black-and-white. The series was then relaunched as a full-color series. Vol. 3 started in July 1999 and is still ongoing.

Fred Perry also began working on an independent OVA based on the original "Time Raft" pilot story since 1999. He basically did ''[[Dancing Bear|everything]]'' except for the voice acting and music composition, while still producing the main series. The last part of story was finally completed and released in 2010.

Not to be confused with the (completely different) [[Gold Digger|character archetype]] - even though that very trope ''is'' a derisive (and largely undeserved) [[In-Series Nickname]] for [[Adventurer Archaeologist|Gina]].
