"Look Out for Lefty!" is a British comic sports story published in the weekly anthology Action from 1 May 1976 to 12 November 1977 by IPC Magazines. The strip focused aspiring footballer Kenny Lampton, nicknamed 'Lefty' due to his powerful left foot shot.

During the strip's publication Action encountered press outrage for its content. An episode of "Look Out for Lefty!" was particularly criticised for perceived encouragement of hooliganism, and shortly afterwards Action was pulled from sale and retooled.
