In "The Globe Trotter," young Woody finds himself stranded on a freighter bound for England after a mishap, only to team up with stowaway Slippery Rhodes when they're caught and forced to work their passage. Their journey takes a dangerous turn when the ship they're on is hijacked by smugglers, leading to a harrowing escape from a slave market in Turkey—where they're eventually rescued by a U.S. destroyer. Dick Hall handles both pencils and inks for the story, bringing the globe-spanning adventure to life, while Dan Gormley's cover captures the escapade's high-stakes energy.
