Kiddie Kapers #14

King Karrot finds himself in a jam when his nephews demand to see the legendary purple dragon he's claimed to have captured—except he never actually caught one. Desperate to save face before dawn, he enlists his court magician Oodini to conjure up a convincing dragon, but things spiral hilariously out of control when a real dragon shows up and King Karrot must actually face off against it. It's a wild tale of a rabbit king who gets far more adventure than he bargained for.

Soopermutt wasn't always the fearless dog he is now—once he was so terrified of cats he'd run from kittens. When a magazine ad for "Snoograss' Invincible Ink" promises to cure cowardice, he orders a bottle, but a sneak attack from a tabby named Tabby the Terrible causes him to gulp down the whole thing at once. With newfound (if temporary) powers, Soopermutt learns a hard lesson about what real strength means when the effects wear off at the worst possible moment.

Orsen Buggy, a self-absorbed movie producer and director, is filming his latest masterpiece when real bank robbers accidentally crash his film shoot—and make off with both the loot and his precious footage. Desperate to recover his film, Buggy finds himself tangled up with a crook named Blackheart Louie, who forces him to star in a chaotic pirate picture that spirals into increasingly wild misadventures. Through a lucky streak and sheer accident, Buggy somehow survives the mayhem—though his stunt man doesn't fare quite as well.
