Kathy

Kathy is a supporting character in Dell's Marge's Tubby comics, a humor series following the rotund pal of Little Lulu. She appears as part of Tubby's neighborhood ensemble alongside characters like Alvin, Iggy, and Knotknee.

A cherming slice of Silver Age Americana, Kathy made her debut in Dell's Marge's Tubby #20 in 1957, brought to life by Lloyd White. Nestled in the warm, wholesome world of Dell's beloved Tubby comics, she shares her pages with a lively cast including Tubby, Alvin, Iggy, and the wonderfully named Knotknee — the kind of spirited ensemble that made these books such a delight for mid-century kids. With 25 appearances across a run that stretched into the early 1960s, Kathy is a genuine piece of that cozy, neighborhood-comic charm that Dell did so well, and a rewarding find for collectors who love digging into the rich supporting casts of Silver Age humor titles.
