LITTLE LULU
INDEX, Part 2
by Jon Merrill
Following is an index of all the stories in the
Little Lulu comics from LL 115 (January 1958) through LL 166 (Paris giant,
1962), and is a continuation of my earlier document of the comics through LL
114. The top line on the same line as
the date is a description of the cover.
Titles of stories, as well as one-line plot summaries, follow, as well
as number of pages. I have also indicated
my personal ratings of what I think are the best stories, from one star to two
stars to three stars.
This index is meant to aid Little Lulu collectors in
locating a particular story they remember, so that they can look for the
particular issue for their collections.
Note also that there is reprint information, as well as trivia involving
first appearances of characters, that sort of thing.
Please let me know by e-mail (jonmerrill@aol.com) if you find any errors
or any entry that is incomplete.

Note: The two most recent issues in this index, LL
165 and LL 166, were giant length but are included in this Little Lulu numbered
run. Starting with LL 167, the look of Little Lulu comics changed a great deal, e.g., the “Lulu’s Diry” logo used since the 1940s stopped with this issue,
and the cover logo used since 1954 also stopped. Most of the next several years through LL 196
consisted of reprints, and an index of those issues is forthcoming on this
page. The Arnold Drake stories started
in 1970 with LL 197.
