Little Lulu #8
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis eighth volume of Dark Horse's Little Lulu collection reprints classic newspaper strips and stories by John Stanley, featuring the mischievous Lulu Moppet as she navigates school, friendships, and holiday adventures—including a memorable encounter with Santa Claus. The title story finds Lulu racing against the clock to avoid being late, showcasing the timeless humor and charm that defined the series' golden age.
In "Shirley the Shadow," Little Lulu's world takes a whimsical turn when Santa Claus, misjudging Tubby's stocking size, swaps them for his own worn-out pair—now stuffed with toys that poke through every tear. Written by John Stanley and illustrated by Irving Tripp, this 2006 Dark Horse gem captures the classic charm of the original comic with a delightfully absurd twist, all rendered in Tripp’s unmistakable style, both inside and on the cover.
When Santa Claus discovers Tubby’s stockings are too small, he swaps them out for his own worn, holey pair—then cramming toys through every tear, leaving them poking out like misfit fireworks.
