Four Color #248
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn the 1949 Four Color #248, "Fixing Tire With Bubble Gum" delivers a delightfully odd mystery as Mickey Mouse and Goofy investigate a string of bizarre disappearances linked only by one strange detail: all the missing people had been watching television the night they vanished. Written, drawn, and inked by Bill Wright—handling every aspect of the interior art—this whimsical tale blends early TV-era paranoia with classic Disney charm. The cover, also by Wright, captures the surreal tone with a bold, hand-drawn image of Mickey staring in disbelief at a floating TV.

Minnie disappears and when Mickey goes to the Bureau of Missing Persons, he finds that more than 50 people have been reported missing. More people are missing the next day. The only thing the missing people have in common is that they either owned a television set or had gone someplace to watch television on the night they vanished. Mickey and Goofy find that Phantasmo the Sorcerer is sending hypnotic broadcasts over the television ordering people to come to his castle to take part in his experiments.
