Owner's Description

The Little King 2/56. File Copy Created by Otto Soglow. One major change from the newspaper strip is that the Little King talks in this comic book. In the newspaper strip he is always silent.

Cover Art: Otto Soglow
Script: John Stanley


This issue is tied with one pother as top graded copies of seven submitted to date. 05/13. I bought this graded, as is, from Heritage Auctions.

Interesting notes:

The strip is notable for having virtually no dialogue; the title character never speaks. The Ambassador was nearly identical in format, and the main characters of the two strips were similar. When The Ambassador gave way for The Little King in 1934, the reader could not be certain if it was the Little King who had arrived into Hearst syndication or the Ambassador who had removed some disguise
