The Great Lover
8 pp · humor; teen

When Hap manages to score two box seats to a theater show by posing as a romantic interest for the play's leading lady, Margie Merrill, his plan backfires spectacularly—his crush Judy sees them together and assumes the worst. With Judy now heading to the show with his rival Reggie instead, Hap has to find a way to clear up the misunderstanding before the curtain falls in this 1947 comedy caper.

Special Delivery
1 pp · humor
Ethelbert Moran

Ethelbert Moran arrives to pick up a large package, but when the delivery clerk offers to send it to his house instead, Moran launches into increasingly elaborate directions that take the poor fellow on a winding journey through town. Watch as this one-pager plays out the comedy of getting lost in a maze of colored houses and landmarks in "Special Delivery" from Hap Hazard Comics #13.

So Now They Tell Me!
5 pp · humor; teen

Hap Hazard thinks his date with Judy is off and his friends are nowhere to be found, so he ends up working the pins at a bowling alley for the evening—only to discover later that night what everyone had actually been up to. A classic case of miscommunication and missed signals in this lighthearted tale from 1947.

Hearts and Flowers
2 pp · humor; teen

Zip and Slug's romantic countryside stroll takes a wild turn when Slug spots pretty flowers in a farmer's field—but the farmer's assurance that his bull is "perfectly safe" turns out to mean safe only for the bull. Later, the mischievous Flophead causes a sledding disaster on an icy hill, and after a stern warning, the troublemaking pup ends up in the river, only to be pulled out by someone he was supposed to rescue, earning himself a dose of castor oil and house arrest.

Out of the Frying Pan!
2 pp · humor; teen

Hap Hazard's patience runs thin when the neighbor kid keeps showing up at the door with increasingly outlandish borrowing requests—and a misunderstanding about "other fish to fry" leads to the punchline you won't see coming. This 1947 humor tale proves that even a good neighbor's generosity has its limits, especially when taken literally.

Tit for Tat
6 pp · humor; teen

Judy has a hunch when a fortune teller predicts she should follow a man with a beard, and she convinces her skeptical boyfriend Hap to tag along—only to stumble onto a bearded stranger at an auction who's discarding free tickets. What starts as a lark at the auction house becomes a surprising stroke of luck when Judy wins the door prize, but when an antique dealer offers an even better deal, Hap begins to wonder if there's something to this fortune-telling business after all. The real test comes when the fortune teller offers to read Hap's future too, leading to a twist that puts his newfound faith in the stars to the ultimate test.

Romeo

This'll Get Your Goat!
2 pp · humor; teen

Larry the Liar is back with a wild tale about how he ended up with a goat—one involving a pest animal, Mr. Mulvaney's red flannels, and a set of railroad tracks that don't quite go as planned. In true Larry fashion, his explanation for how he came to possess the creature is so outlandish you'll wonder if a word of it is true, but the goat's fate hangs on the most ridiculous chain of events you've ever heard.

Model Man
7 pp · humor; teen

When a lovesick teenager borrows some store mannequins to make his girlfriend jealous, his scheme spirals into one mix-up after another—complete with borrowed dresses, an angry shop owner, and a crucial misunderstanding. Hap Hazard learns that pulling a fast one on Judy might not be the smartest way to patch things up, even when he's got the best of intentions and a friend like Slug egging him on.
