"Whack" #2 is a humor anthology featuring "Steve Crevice 3-D T's," about a man in the Air Force who sings and romances a woman named Blondie; "Flush Jordan," a space adventure story in which the title character becomes a royal flush after being insulted; and a story involving an editor at Acme Comics who repeatedly orders a cover designer to make his 3-D book cover larger, only to have the designer's work destroyed and eventually replaced. The issue also includes a story about hunters confronted by moose in a forest setting, where they attempt to fend off the attacking animals.

Steve Crevice
6 pp · Satire-Parody

When Colonel Crevice assigns young Air Force pilot Steve Crevice to investigate wild claims that military jets are buzzing a small town dangerously low, he arrives ready to set the record straight—only to find his routine mission derailed by a stowaway with romantic intentions and a playful disregard for military protocol. This satirical romp mines absurdity from both the military-industrial earnestness of 1950s culture and the overwrought heroics of comic-book adventurers, delivering the kind of tongue-in-cheek chaos *Whack* built its reputation on.

The 3-D-T's
6 pp · Satire-Parody

A publisher cashes in on the 3-D comic craze with increasingly outlandish cover designs, only to find himself caught between warring lawyers and inventors each claiming exclusive rights to the 3-D process. This six-page satire skewers both the comic book industry's mad scramble for the latest trend and the patent wars that threaten to derail the whole enterprise.

No Dimension Comics
6 pp · Anthropomorphic-Funny Animals, Satire-Parody

A scrawny moose named Brucie takes an overdose of a vigor-boosting tonic and accidentally gains the ability to fly, leading him to adopt a superhero identity as Mighty Moose—complete with uniform borrowed from an actual Mighty Mouse. When his newfound powers are put to the test against hunters threatening his woodland community, things spiral into delightful chaos with results nobody quite expected. It's Whack magazine's affectionate roasting of its own comic-book conventions, packed with the kind of slapstick absurdity and fourth-wall winks that made 1950s funny-animal satire so much fun.

Flush Jordan
6 pp · Satire-Parody, Science Fiction

Flush Jordan and his companions race to deliver a mysterious package to King Bing of the planet Bingo in time for the emperor's coronation, all while being pursued by a spy working for the villainous Rob Dope. With obstacles and mishaps mounting at every turn, Flush must overcome the hazards of space travel and planetary intrigue to complete the crucial mission—but a comic twist awaits when the true contents of the package are finally revealed.
