In "The Great Survival Test," Goofy’s routine trip to the supermarket takes a wild turn when he spots a cereal box with the elusive box top number 23—key to entering a ship blueprint puzzle contest. But his chance at the prize is threatened when Black Pete’s henchman Filch tries to steal it, only to be caught and arrested, setting off a chain of events that sends Mickey and Goofy on a new adventure. Written by Carl Fallberg and brought to life with energetic art by Paul Murry, this 1987 classic features a cover by Daan Jippes, capturing the zany stakes of a cereal-box chase with a twist.
