Sugar Bowl Comics #2 is an anthology featuring multiple humorous stories. "Sugar Bowl" presents a fishing outing where a muscular man, a woman, and a boy display their catch for a photograph. Another story follows a character named Randy involved in a car racing scheme with friends named Sue and Stony, where Randy enters his car in a race but cannot accept the prize money from his friend, leading to complications. A third story involves a professor whose student Ted disrupts his class with pranks involving flowers and creatures, causing the professor to resign after keeping a secret for forty years, though the boys are later exonerated when a ghost is discovered to be responsible. The final visible story shows children investigating a vacant house and discovering evidence of a ghost's presence before being blamed, only to be cleared when authorities confirm supernatural activity at the location.
