Little Lulu #54.

As a kid -- rather, as a young boy -- I often shied away from "girlie" comics because, well, I was a young boy. It was super-heroes, Westerns and war comics for me. But that young male chauvanistic ban on by comics buying didn't include Little Lulu. Why? Because of the great "young kids" topics like battle of the sexes ('No Girls Allowed'), scary ghost stories (Witch Hazel) and complicated mystery tales (The Spider). It was all good, good writing. And funny, to boot. (Plus, I always figured Lulu could beat me up if it came down to fighting).

Also, here's some monsters.

A few interesting comic books.
