Contains 6 stories
The Invisible Brain
5 pp · humor

Benjamin, the young protagonist known as the Brain, mixes up a chemical concoction from his chemistry set hoping to become invisible—and to his amazement, it actually works! With newfound invisibility, he delights in playing pranks on his friends and family, from making his bicycle appear driverless to stealing sips of soda and enjoying rides he normally couldn't get away with. But as with most of the Brain's brainstorms, things don't stay under control for long.

The Mouse Trapper
3 pp · humor

When a mouse invades Miss Doozey's classroom, Russel springs into action to catch it—but his enthusiastic pursuit turns the school into complete pandemonium as he crashes through doors, floors, and whatever else stands between him and his tiny quarry. This 1958 humor story from *The Brain* #9 is pure slapstick chaos as the mouse-trapping mission spirals hilariously out of control.

Around the Neighborhood in 80 Minutes
5 pp · humor

The Brain dreams up a homemade airship using his mom's sheets and hot air from the stove, but when he tests his contraption, his father gets caught in the balloon and carried away on an uncontrolled flight around the neighborhood. What follows is a hilarious 80-minute chase as the Brain tries one wild rescue scheme after another—from lassoing to arrows to a car—to bring his dad safely back down to earth.

The Cat's Meow
3 pp · humor

Wizard and Genius Dummo are dead-set on proving they're smarter than the Brain by inventing hearing aids—until they accidentally discover a scared cat stuck in a tree and seize the chance to rescue it before the Brain can. The bumbling brothers concoct a scheme to coax the frightened feline down, but their plan careens spectacularly out of control when a fire truck and an unfortunate run-in with a cat-hating dog turn the rescue into complete chaos.

A Very Pressing Matter
1 pp · anthropomorphic-funny animals

Merry Mouse needs to look presentable for a movie date with Molly, but his suits are hopelessly wrinkled—and he realizes he doesn't even own an iron. When Molly threatens to skip the picture entirely, Merry spots an unexpected solution on the street outside, proving there's hope for the seemingly hapless mouse yet.

Too Many Brainstorms
4 pp · humor

When a father assigns his sons some weekend chores around the house, the boys decide to tackle each task with homemade contraptions born from sudden inspiration—with results that range from wildly creative to utterly disastrous. "Too Many Brainstorms" is a rapid-fire romp through well-meaning schemes gone wrong, from cement-slinging slingshots to self-propelled mowers with minds of their own. By the time the dust (and soot, and leaves) settles, Dad's had enough of his sons' inventive shortcuts and calls in the professionals.
