The first in a five-volume best-of series, featuring an introduction from Margaret Atwood!
Lulu Moppet is an outspoken and brazen young girl who doesnt follow any ruleswhether theyve been set by her parents, the neighborhood boys, or society itself. In 2019 D+Q begins a landmark full-color reissue series collecting five volumes of Lulus funniest suburban hijinks: she goes on picnics, babysits, and attempts to break into the boys clubhouse again and again. Cartoonist John Stanleys expert timing and constant gags made these stories unbelievably enjoyable, ensuring that Marges Little Lulu was a defining comic of the post-war period.
First released in the 1940s and 1950s as Dell comics, Little Lulu as helmed by Stanley remains one of the most entertaining works in the medium. In this first volume, Little Lulu: Working Girl, we meet the series mainstay characters: Lulu, Tubby, Alvin, and oodles more neighbourhood kids. Little Lulus comedy lies in the hilarious dynamic between its cast of characters.
Lulus assertiveness, individuality, and creativity is empowering to witnessthe series is powerfully feminist despite the decades in which the stories were created. Its the characters strong personality that made her beloved by such feminist icons as Patti Smith, Eileen Myles, and more. Lovingly restored to its original full color, complete with knee-slapping humor and an introduction by Margaret Atwood that explains the vitality of Lulu herself, Little Lulu: Working Girl is a delight for classic comics fans and the uninitiated.
