Sis Sez Sunday - 57


I've never quite decided how old Sis is. She most often seems like a young woman, possibly in her late teens - then an episode pops up where she's dancing in gym class and has irritated the P.E. teacher.

How old do you think Sis is supposed to be? Any opinions?

This installment of Marge and Ruth Plumly Thompson's SIS SEZ page first appeared in King Comics, No. 50, in June 1940. If you love Marge's Little Lulu you're sure to get a kick out of Sis!

Please note that if you click on the image it will expand to a full-size version which will make it much easier to read! All of the other blog images will similarly enlarge.

I suppose I've thought of her as early 20's, but 17 or so would work - looking back through past comics, she could easily be in high school!

She could be in college, too. But I wouldn't think the creators of Sis would want the readers of Sis to think Sis too OLD - and college age seems a bit old.

She does seem to have a lot of autonomy, though.
