Monster Fun Comic #1

Martha’s dad hands her a jar of vintage studio make-up, unaware it’ll turn her face into a grotesque spectacle—her curls springing to life and her mum fleeing in terror as she dashes to the dress shop. A delightfully silly, one-page gem from Monster Fun Comic #1 (1975), blending campy horror and suburban chaos.

In a future where the Posh family hires robots to solve their mouse problem, two contenders—Dough Nut and Rusty—arrive with big personalities and even bigger egos, turning a simple pest control job into a battle of wits and whimsy. Written by a young and sharp mind, the story’s clever humor unfolds in just two pages, packed with charm and a touch of chaos.

Jo and her family’s car breaks down on a lonely road, only to be approached by a witch who trades them magic beans for the vehicle. The beans sprout into a towering beanstalk that lifts their caravan high into the clouds, where a giant with a taste for travelers has other plans.

In a delightfully absurd twist, Brainy’s latest experiment turns an apple—and its worm—into something far too large, leading to a hilarious mix-up when the old woman next door mistakes the giant worm for her sausage dog and takes it for a walk.

In the 1975 adventure tale "null" from Monster Fun Comic #1, the chaos begins when a lightning strike knocks out the computer controlling the animatronic dinosaurs on an Anvil Films set—suddenly, the creatures are no longer on screen, but real, and on the move.
