Through the comic strips and past films, we know Marcie as the humble genius who works in service of others, particularly her best friend Peppermint Patty-for whom Marcie’s devotion is so loyal she calls her “Sir.” There’s a surprising, refreshing revelation for Marcie fans in One-of-a-Kind Marcie: She doesn’t resent her life in the shadows in fact, she loves it. ![]() We’ve been attention-seeking Sally, demanding Lucy, happy-go-lucky tomboy Peppermint Patty, or messy-yet-confident Pig-Pen.īut what does it say about you if the character you’ve always related to the most is Marcie?
