"Shoes of Sinbad" kicks off in Walter Lantz Woody Woodpecker #173 (1978), a 35-cent comic where the zany antics of the beloved woodpecker take a whimsical turn as Jo and her friends stumble upon a mysterious pair of enchanted shoes. Written with playful energy and brought to life by Sal Buscema’s dynamic art and Joe Sinnott’s crisp inks, the story follows a classic adventure setup with a touch of magic—no spoilers, just pure, lighthearted fun. The cover by Joe Messerli captures the moment perfectly, drawing readers in with a vibrant, action-packed scene.
