"Get Lost" #3 is an anthology comic containing multiple stories. One story follows Zaid Spider and Zaid Der Girl Fly as they engage in a romantic rivalry over a Pembroke autograph, with the spider attempting various schemes to win her affection while she outmaneuvers him with her own tricks. Another story depicts a troop train carrying soldiers to an unknown destination where they encounter cannon fodder and strange alien creatures, culminating in chaos when an elephant appears among the troops. The issue also includes "The Meddling Reporter," a segment featuring street interviews at Grand Central Station about the Kinsey Report on women, and a sensational advertisement for a toy gun that shoots real bullets.

Contains 6 stories
They Called Him - Sam
5 pp · Satire-Parody, Western-Frontier

A drifter and his dog pass through frontier country looking for a quiet rest, but their unassuming stop at a homestead quickly spirals into misunderstanding, near-drowning, and an Apache ambush that tests whether this independent wanderer can keep his cool when chaos closes in. This 1954 satire sends up frontier tall tales and western heroics with absurdist humor and plenty of growling from a certain four-legged companion.

The Circle, the Triangle and the Square
1 pp · Humor

A stubborn square meets his match when a circle and an isosceles triangle try to convince him that being different isn't such a bad thing in this cheeky 1954 tale of geometry and stubbornness. The circle makes some compelling arguments, even has the square cornered, but some personalities are just too fixed in their ways to budge. A quick, clever dig at closed-mindedness wrapped up in the language of shapes.

Der Spider und der Fly
2 pp · Humor, Animal

A smooth-talking spider tries to sweet-talk a reluctant young fly into his penthouse with promises of fine art, fancy liquor, and romance—but the fly's got wise to his charms and isn't buying what he's selling. This 1954 humor tale from Get Lost #3 plays the classic seduction setup for laughs, complete with a spider's desperate final gambit to prove his cultured taste.

The Some-Thing
5 pp · Horror-Suspense, Satire-Parody

When a mysterious alien artifact frozen at the North Pole falls into the hands of scientists led by Doctor Himmelschmutz, a comedy of errors unfolds that turns their lab into absolute chaos. After a mix-up with slabs of ice, the something escapes—and nobody's quite sure what it is or how to stop it. What begins as a scientific puzzle becomes a hilarious nightmare as the creature wreaks havoc and the good doctor scrambles to contain his discovery before panic spreads.

Ride in the Subway
5 pp · Humor

A hapless rider braces for the ultimate urban gauntlet: the subway during rush hour. This tongue-in-cheek survival guide catalogs the hazards lurking in every car—from aggressive platform pushers to sneaky smokers—and walks you through the obstacles you'll face from turnstile to train door. It's a hilarious crash course in the unexpected dangers of commuting in 1954.

Gunga Dean
5 pp · Satire-Parody

In this wartime satire set in colonial India, a plucky soldier named Dean proves his mettle when his regiment faces mysterious threats and enemy forces, earning the admiration of his fellow troops through both courage under fire and an unexpected talent for song. As the unit scrambles to hold the line against overwhelming odds, Dean stands firm—though the chaos of military orders, the oppressive heat, and the sheer absurdity of battle keep everyone on edge.
