This issue features two stories: "Carrot Caper" starring Soopermutt, in which the anthropomorphic rabbit knight Ironclad battles the Black Knight to protect his castle, ultimately defeating him with fireworks; and "The Zany Zoo," a prose story about John Reilly, who works at the city zoo and claims to understand animals, helping resolve various animal complaints including beavers needing clay for their dams and a squirrel named Sojo who forgets where he hides his nuts. A backup comic strip follows two rabbits who discover a rainbow and chase it hoping to find the pot of gold at its end, only to realize they need to hurry back for lunch before their owner discovers them missing.

King Karrot faces financial ruin and cuts off all the fun—no comic books, candy, or movies—but his two young nephews hatch a plan to save the day by chasing a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. When their search leads them far from home and into the care of an old witch, King Karrot sets out to find them, only to discover what really matters isn't the treasure, but being together.
