☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeAn anthology issue containing three stories: "Deed a Day, Danny" follows a well-meaning boy who forgets to purchase flowers for his sweetheart's wedding and the shop's shirt, leading to comical mishaps when he attempts to make amends. "Billy Bunter Doesn't Know His Own Strength" depicts the titular character accidentally wreaking havoc after becoming unaware of his own muscular power, angering those around him and eventually angering a woman who retaliates. The issue also includes a Robin Hood adventure set in Sherwood Forest, where Robin and his men evade Norman forces hunting them, and a "Sexton Blake" story titled "The Case of Tropical Treasure," in which Blake and Tinker pursue a treasure trail in Africa, encounter a mysterious black warrior, and must locate an injured man while navigating treacherous circumstances and antagonists.
Billy Bunter discovers he's got more force behind him than he realized when a simple action at school goes hilariously wrong. What starts as foolish loitering near the pantry quickly spirals into unexpected chaos that leaves everyone around him scrambling. This 1947 Knockout tale is a quick, punchy reminder that sometimes the smallest mistakes pack the biggest punch.
Robin Hood refuses to swear loyalty to Prince John and must fight his way free from Nottingham Castle—a desperate escape that forces him and Will Scarlet into outlaw life in Sherwood Forest. While Sir Guy of Gisbourne hunts them through the woods, Robin gathers allies and plots his next move, knowing that Prince John has already signed a death warrant for them both. This swashbuckling tale, based on the Warner Bros. Technicolor production, captures the moment a Saxon noble becomes a fugitive and legend begins to take shape.
Sexton Blake and Tinker pursue a treasure trail that leads them to Africa, where they discover a mysterious black warrior and an unconscious white man. The detective and his partner must unravel this strange encounter to solve the case of the tropical treasure.
