About this Collection

This fourth volume of Dark Horse's archival series collects more classic Little Lulu comic strips from the 1940s and 1950s, featuring the mischievous Lulu Moppet and her friends Tubby, Iggy, and Annie. The stories, originally created by John Stanley and Irving Tripp, capture Lulu's imaginative schemes and her ongoing rivalry with the neighborhood boys. This edition reprints the Sunday color pages, offering a vibrant look at the golden age of comic strips.

In "Lulu Kisses Tubby," John Stanley delivers a delightfully twisted twist on a classic tale, with Lulu spinning a fantastical story about magic beans that bloom into a sea of bean soup instead of a towering stalk. Penciled and inked with playful precision by Stanley and Tripp, this 2005 Dark Horse gem turns a familiar folktale on its head, all while keeping the charm and whimsy of the original Little Lulu world.
