Walter Lantz Woody Woodpecker #127
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Phantom Trail," Woody Woodpecker takes Knothead and Splinter on a camping trip with a twist: he’s determined to teach them independence, not just how to survive in the woods. But when a publicity-hungry actor, a clever crow, a mischievous trained bear, and a strange phantom start stirring up trouble, Woody’s lesson in self-reliance gets a whole lot more complicated. Written by Don R. Christensen and illustrated by John Carey—with inks by Steve Steere and colors by the Western Publishing Production Shop—this 1973 classic features cover art by John Carey.
Woody Woodpecker takes Knothead and Splinter on a camping trip to toughen them up, but their lessons in self-reliance are tested by a publicity stunt gone wrong, a sneaky crow, a well-trained bear, and a shadowy figure haunting the woods. With his usual mix of wit and chaos, Woody must navigate the wilds—both literal and comedic—while trying to keep his friends from falling into old habits.
When Knothead decides to run away from home and school in search of adventure, Woody Woodpecker steps in—disguised in a series of increasingly absurd costumes—to talk him down. But no matter how many roles Woody tries, Knothead remains determined to see the world. Just how far will Woody go to bring him back?
Chilly Willy’s icy garden is the talk of the tropics—literally—when the Jokester, a flamboyant toucan-like bird, arrives mistaking the frozen geysers for palm trees. His constant complaints about the "wrong climate" and "lack of sun" push Chilly’s patience to the breaking point, turning the chilly paradise into a frosty comedy of errors.
