}}The Trouble with Girls is an American comic book published serially from 1987–1993 by Malibu Comics/Eternity Comics, Comico, and Epic Comics. It was written by Will Jacobs and Gerard Jones, and drawn by Tim Hamilton and others.[1]The Trouble with Girls is a satirical action series starring Lester Girls, who wants to be simply an "average guy" with a dead-end job, a plain wife, and no adventures more exciting than a good night's sleep. But Lester can't go for a drive without terrorists launching missiles at him, or walk into one of his many mansions without a beautiful, talented, curvaceous woman reposing half-dressed on his bed. Wealth, adventure, sexual magnetism, dashing good looks, and the savoir faire of a Hollywood action hero are what he calls "the curse of Girls."[2]

Hamilton's clean, linear art evokes classic superhero comics. In one four-page set piece, Apache Dick, a Girls analogue who loves the high life, launches an escape that starts with pole-vaulting the Great Wall of China and ends with him crawling from the smoking wreckage of a kamikaze plane muttering only, "the bungalow."[3]

Publication history

Malibu Comics published vol. 1 (issues 1–14 and Annual 1) in 1987 and 1988, the first six issues under its "Malibu Comics" imprint, the remainder under its Eternity Comics imprint. In 1989, Comico launched vol. 2 (issues 1–4), which then returned to Malibu and the "Eternity" imprint[4] for issues 5–23 and a Christmas Special. During vol. 2's run, Malibu also brought out related Lester Girls, Apache Dick, and Lizard Lady mini-series. In 1993, Epic Comics published a four-issue Trouble with Girls miniseries called The Trouble With Girls: Night of the Lizard, with art by Bret Blevins and Al Williamson, as well as a Lester Girls short story in its Heavy Hitters Annual.[1]

Collected editions

The first fourteen issues of The Trouble with Girls were reissued in two volumes by Checker Book Publishing Group in 2006.[3] Currently, The Trouble with Girls is available digitally exclusively through Devil's Due Digital.
