Walter Lantz Woody Woodpecker #125

In "The Phoney Express," Woody Woodpecker stumbles upon a long-lost map in the attic, leading to a forgotten mine tied to a great granduncle’s days as a Pony Express rider. With a letter to deliver and a wild ride ahead, Woody and the kids set off on a misadventure that’s equal parts history and hijinks. Written by Carl Fallberg and illustrated by Paul Murry, with a cover by Phil De Lara, this 1972 Western comic captures the spirit of classic adventure with a playful twist.
