Richie Rich (comics)/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Canon Sue: Richie is filthy rich, he has all the best people working for him, and he's incredibly nice.
  • Epileptic Trees: Bart and Lisa Simpson postulate that Casper is the ghost of Richie Rich, based on their similar appearances; Lisa thinks Richie committed suicide when he realized how hollow the pursuit of money is.
  • Pragmatic Adaptation: To deal with the property's deficit in female protagonists, the Hanna-Barbera series played up Irona as not only the Richs' Robot Maid, but as Richie's bodyguard with a myriad of functions to use in his protection.
  • Robo Ship: Irona seems awfully attached to Richie.
  • Toy Ship: Richie and Gloria
  • The Woobie: Despite being the "Richest Kid in the World", Richie is unhappy with his life. Mostly because he has no real friends. His classmates in school are always too busy and find Richie odd for wanting to "hang out" like "normal kids". He tried to make friends with regular kids, but at first they tell him he doesn't "belong".
