In "Goony Goony Island," Porky Pig and Bugs Bunny embark on a wacky Pacific adventure to retrieve a package of diamonds from a mysterious island that rises and sinks like a tide-powered riddle. With the island’s shifting tides and a shark-guarded underwater cave, the duo’s mission is anything but smooth sailing—especially when the real challenge might be staying afloat. Art by John Carey, inks by Steve Steere, and a cover by Ralph Heimdahl bring the absurdity to life in this 1960 Dell classic.

As Henery scrambles to find a place to hide the bag, Foghorn shadows him with a growing suspicion that the chickens' corn has been stolen.
