Synopsis:
Cartoonist Mel Mitchum, creator of Pal the Wonder Dog, visits a children’s ward and tells the kids that he will feature the kids in the next issue of Eighth Wonder Comics. A fire set by bandits destroys the books before they are released, so Johnny Quick creates the comic again from scratch to make sure the book is published on time, and the kid’s aren’t disappointed.
