Cover by John Giunta. Stories and art by Howie Post and others. Funny-animal comics from Spotlight Publishers. When the hive's honey is threatened by a farmer, Bee-29 transforms into a bee superhero to stop him. But when he learns the honey is needed for the "war effort" to stop Hitler, the bees change their buzz, in an unusual mix of kids' humor and WWII propaganda. In another story that showcases its historical era, Spot and Dot get jobs through the WPA to work on a farm. But the journey to the farm becomes a cross-country odyssey. Frank Furter the dog sneaks into the carnival, but freaks out when he thinks "hot dogs" are cooked canines, a natural enough reaction. Cool cover by John Giunta. To Be or Not to Be a Bee...; Sammy the Stork; Gee Gee the Talking Horse: The Mysterious Castle!; Spot and Dot; Life's But a Stage...; Eeny Meeny and Moe; Frank Furter. 48 pages, Full Color.
