Devil Kids Starring Hot Stuff #42

In "The Devil Doll [Part One]," Hot Stuff reluctantly accepts a strange gift from Aunt Gushy: a doll that refuses to stay still, growing dangerously hot the moment he tries to set it down. As the little toy begins to defy reason and threaten everything in its path, Hot Stuff must figure out how to handle a gift that’s anything but harmless—before it burns more than just his patience.

In "Dropout Land," Hot Stuff faces a tempting escape when the Enchanted Forest truant officer tries to send him to school—only to discover that skipping class leads to a far more dangerous place: Dropout Land. With a mix of whimsy and warning, the story follows Hot Stuff as he navigates the strange, perilous world that awaits those who ditch their lessons.

In "Mr. Pocket," Hot Stuff finds himself reluctantly sharing his usual antics with a pair of unexpected guests—Mr. Pocket and his son, two mischievous kangaroos who turn out to be more helpful than he expected. Though initially put off by their antics, Hot Stuff discovers their surprising knack for turning the tide when his usual foes show up.
