Atomic Mouse encounters a propaganda campaign falsely claiming he is a fake, featuring a magician named Count Gatto performing as the "World's Greatest Magician" at a theater. Determined to prove himself genuine, Atomic Mouse attends the show to expose the deception. Oliver, a young mouse who has received a detective kit, attempts to solve the case independently by collecting fingerprints from the propaganda materials and comparing them to those in his instruction booklet, ultimately helping to catch the real culprit responsible for the false claims. The issue also includes puzzle and game activities for readers.
