Coo Coo Comics #62

When Prof. Branes' time machine malfunctions, it brings medieval knights into the present day instead of sending Supermouse into the past—and Supermouse soon discovers that the "Black Knight" leading the group is actually the criminal Terrible Tom in disguise, using the chaos to take over the town. Trapped and facing certain doom, Supermouse must escape his captors and turn the tables on the mastermind before Terrible Tom's reign of terror becomes complete.

Coo Coo's worn-out voice from years of calling the hours prompts him to modernize his clock with electricity—a well-intentioned decision that quickly spirals into chaos when crossed wires send the washing machine playing radio music, the stove chilling like a refrigerator, and everything else malfunctioning in hilarious ways. As the mess piles up and the boss's patience wears thin, Coo Coo learns a hard lesson about meddling with things beyond his understanding.

Custer Crocodile's jalopy breaks down, and when a well-meaning friend volunteers to fix the motor using his newly learned car repair skills, things don't quite go according to plan. This 1952 tale from Coo Coo Comics proves that taking lessons and actually finishing the job are two very different things.

Tommy Turtle works at a hardware store where a bully regularly comes in causing trouble—until the store's owner gives him orders to fight back with a hammer if it happens again. When the bully returns, Tommy follows his instructions a little too literally, leading to hilarious consequences that the exasperated owner definitely didn't anticipate.
