☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe issue contains two stories featuring Timmy the Timid Ghost. In "The Biggest Midget," Timmy encounters a group of other ghosts who tease him for being small and timid, but he resolves to do something about his situation. In "The Kidnapper," a woman mistakes Timmy for her missing child and kidnaps him, leading to comedic chaos as Timmy tries to escape while she attempts to use various tricks and odors to make him behave like a proper child.
Timmy lands what seems like the perfect gig—assistant to disc jockey Phil Spirit at Station WPU's all-night radio program—but his first night on the job turns into absolute chaos when he takes over the microphone. Between fielding phone calls from less-than-impressed listeners, managing eccentric guests (including a lion tamer with an unexpected sample), juggling commercial reads, and playing records, Timmy finds himself completely overwhelmed by the madcap demands of live radio. By the time the evening wraps up, he's learned that even his "soft job" comes with a price.
Timmy the Timid Ghost is tired of being mocked by the other spooks for his small size, so he seeks out Witch Hazel for a magical brew to make him grow into a towering giant—only to discover that size isn't the answer to acceptance. When his newfound stature leaves him isolated and miserable, Timmy must learn what truly matters.
Billy Frog is eager to serenade Fanny Frog, but she decides to search for someone with a better singing voice before he arrives—a quest that takes her through a parade of creatures with increasingly terrible vocal talents. After auditioning a variety of animals, each one worse than the last, Fanny discovers that Billy's voice might not be so bad after all.
Atomic Bunny springs into action when a million-dollar heist threatens the safety of a secure vault, facing off against the cunning Sly Fox in a race to protect the cash. With super-strength as his secret weapon, our heroic bunny must stop the thief before it's too late.
When Timmy's trumpet practice drives his roommate to the brink of madness, the exasperated ghost demands he get rid of the instrument—and Timmy obeys, though perhaps not in the way intended. This lighthearted romp shows what happens when a timid ghost tries to keep the peace but ends up trading one musical headache for another.
Timmy the Timid Ghost stumbles into looking after a bratty young shade while mistaken for the child's caretaker, only to discover the kid is actually the recently kidnapped son of a wealthy family. When a real kidnaper shows up demanding the child's return, Timmy must rely on his accidental heroics to stop the criminal—though the real challenge proves to be surviving time spent with the mischievous little monster. It's a comic romp that twists the usual rescue yarn into a story where the reward might matter less than the relief of finally being rid of the troublemaker.
