Marmaduke Mouse #48

In the main Marmaduke Mouse story, the character attempts to capture a wild lion by tying a slip-knot around its neck with instructions to jerk it tight, but the lion becomes possessed by magic and commands the rope to release him. Marmaduke then tries to trap the beast in a cage, but the lion uses his power to force Marmaduke up a tree limb and pokes him down. In a second story, Marmaduke and his friend Buzzy go sailing and encounter a powerful engine that propels them at 60 miles per hour; after crashing into a ship and becoming airborne, they eventually land on a dead island that stops their uncontrollable vessel, requiring them to wait for fuel before continuing their journey.
