In "They Wouldn't Believe Him!", a reluctant suitor is pressured into a political marriage to prevent war, but finds the chosen bride unappealing—until a sorcerer's apprentice attempts to transform her with magic. Despite the court's efforts, only the apprentice's spell succeeds, leading to a union that doesn't prevent the conflict they sought to avoid. Paul Reinman handles both pencils and inks for the interior art, while Carl Burgos delivers the cover.
