Peter Rabbit #24

Peter Rabbit stumbles upon an old family album and imagines himself as a hapless inventor in the Gay Nineties, convinced that brilliant creations will win the heart of Dazy, a celebrated theatre star—if only they'd stop exploding, malfunctioning, or betraying him at the worst possible moments. As Peter dreams up invention after invention (the phonograph, airplane, submarine, telephone, automobile, and electric light bulb), he finds himself constantly outmaneuvered by the charming Desperate Desmond, leading to comic chaos at every turn. It's a rollicking romp through a cartoonish past where ingenuity keeps colliding with bad luck, and the path to romance is paved with delightful disaster.

Peter Rabbit bites off way more than he can chew when he decides to prove himself as a bronco buster at the local rodeo in "Bronco Busting," drawn by Frank Carin. After a series of spectacularly comedic mishaps—both at the rodeo and later when he and his pal Dazy befriend a wild horse in the mountains—Peter gets a shot at redemption he never quite expected. It's a wild ride of western hijinks and slapstick that'll have you laughing at every stumble and tumble.
