Pat Sullivan's Felix the Cat #50
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Royal Flush," Felix the Cat flees Earth on his magic carpet, fed up with his master’s endless card games and the resulting hunger. His escape leads him to a bizarre world where everyone is a playing card—kings, queens, and jacks of the four suits—and his disdain for cards lands him in trouble with the Jack of Clubs. Written and illustrated entirely by Otto Messmer, this 1954 classic features a delightfully absurd twist on a familiar theme, with Messmer’s distinctive art bringing the card-themed realm to life on both the interior pages and the cover.
In "Royal Flush," Felix the Cat, fed up with his master’s endless card games and the resulting hunger, flees Earth on his magic carpet in search of a card-free world. His escape lands him on a strange planet where everyone is a playing card—kings, queens, and jacks of the four suits—where his hatred of cards quickly makes him a target, and he’s sentenced to be beaten by the Jack of Clubs.
Felix the Cat tries to follow life advice from a stack of library books, only to find each one leads to increasingly absurd mishaps—until he finally picks up "How to Keep Out of Trouble," hoping for a better path.
