☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis is an anthology issue featuring comics, games, puzzles, quizzes, and toys. One story follows Santa's attempt to find help at his workshop, where he recruits two mouse characters to assist with Christmas preparations and gift delivery. Another story depicts Boot Hibson and his dog attempting to rescue a character named Dough Hibson from mortgage troubles by confronting villains at Shoe Tree Corners, though their rescue mission goes awry when Boot inadvertently causes a series of chaotic events involving a tree and frog that results in property destruction. The issue also includes a humorous sequence where a character attempts to photograph frogs for a picture, leading to slapstick comedy as he repeatedly fails and gets splashed in the process.
In "null," Pidgy checks into the lavish Aldorf Wastoria hotel, using his magic paint to craft an image of wealth and luxury. But when the bill arrives, his illusions fall short—his art can't conjure real money, and the consequences of his deception begin to loom.
When Patent Leather Percy threatens to foreclose on Paddy Long Boots' mortgage, the villain demands a cruel bargain: Shoe-Shoe Baby's hand in marriage or the family loses everything. As the desperate girl prepares to sacrifice her happiness, Boot Hibson—an expert in Jiu Jit Shoe—races against the clock to save her, but Percy's henchmen have other plans. A tale of villainy, true love, and the soul-deep bonds that matter most, "The Soul of a Shoe" proves that even a straight-laced hero can triumph when the stakes are highest.
