When a Japanese plane drops fake American newspapers as propaganda, Ginger’s belief in a fabricated threat sets off a chain of playful chaos—her enthusiastic reaction leads her straight into the commanding officer, leaving her dazed and dreaming of joining the fight. Cover by Matt Baker.
When Sheena discovers that her companion Bob has gone missing, a mysterious message lures her into a trap set by Dema, a scheming witch doctor's daughter who will stop at nothing to eliminate the jungle queen—and claim Bob for herself. As Dema wields dark magic and ancient temple rituals to consolidate her power, Sheena must navigate a maze of deception, drugged illusions, and sacred elephants to expose the truth and save those she cares about from a sinister fate.
In "Bombs over Burma!", a playful propaganda ploy takes flight when a Japanese plane drops American newspapers with fake headlines. Ginger, believing the absurd stories, rallies her friends in a spirited but misguided effort to warn the base—only to collide with the commanding officer in a dizzying tumble. Her dreamy mission to help the squadron unfolds in a whimsical haze, blending wartime antics with lighthearted farce.
