Sammi

Sammi is a supporting character in the kid-humor world of Marge's Tubby, a Dell Comics series centered on chubby, mischief-prone Tubby Tompkins. Sammi runs with Tubby's gang of young troublemakers, including Alvin, Knotknee, Kathy, and Iggy.

Sammi is a charming piece of mid-century Americana, stepping onto the Dell Comics scene in 1955 as part of the beloved world Marge built around her rotund, lovable star. A Golden Age kid-humor character through and through, Sammi keeps lively company with the likes of Tubby, Alvin, Knotknee, Kathy, and Iggy — that irresistible gang of young mischief-makers whose antics defined wholesome comic fun for a generation of young readers. Appearing across Marge's Tubby and even the seasonal delight of Marge's Lulu and Tubby Halloween Fun, Sammi is one of those characters who quietly enriches a richly textured comics universe that ran well into the early 1960s. For collectors who love the warm, ink-and-newsprint nostalgia of Dell's golden era of all-ages storytelling, tracking down Sammi's appearances is a genuine treat.
