Royal Roy: A Prince of a Boy was a short-lived comic book title from the Marvel Comics younger readers' imprint Star Comics; it lasted six issues.

[edit] Publication history

Royal Roy: A Prince of a Boy began in April, 1985, as an answer to the successful Harvey Comics Richie Rich series. Its title character was the young Prince Roy of Cashelot, a fictional kingdom whose name was a blend of "cash" and "Camelot." Like Richie, Roy was surrounded by wealth and luxury, but wasn't spoiled by it; in many ways, he was just like any other young boy. Also like Richie, Roy had a sweet-natured middle-class girlfriend (Crystal Cleer) and a wealthy, abrasive acquaintance (Lorna Loot) who vied for his affections.

The bimonthly series ended in March, 1986.
