Youthful (also known as Youthful Magazines) was an American comic book publisher that operated from 1949 to 1954. The company was owned by attorney Bill Friedman[1] and his wife Sophie. Adrian Lopez (1906–2004) had the title of publisher of the company for most of its existence.[2] Comics editor Sol Cohen (possibly with help from financier Harry Donenfeld) helped launch Youthful.[3]
