An anthology of humorous stories featuring "The Road to Mandalay," in which a bandleader conducts his orchestra through physical slapstick mishaps, and "The Four Mosquitoes," a parody of adventure tales about legendary heroes fighting for their queen, with the mosquitoes engaging in comic battle and eventually being celebrated at a glamorous premiere attended by movie stars. The issue includes various other comedic vignettes showcasing slapstick humor, puns, and satirical takes on popular entertainment and adventure narratives.

Contains 7 stories
Paradise Gained!
7 pp · Humor

Bored stiff after eons of the same old tortures, Satan gets a TV set from one of his demons and becomes enchanted by the wild world of mortal advertising—so enchanted that he decides to visit Earth in disguise and experience this crazy mixed-up land for himself. What follows is a hilarious culture clash as the Prince of Darkness tangles with Madison Avenue hustle, modern jive talk, and the general pandemonium of 1954 city life, discovering that the mortal world might just be more chaotic than his own kingdom.

Little Artie's Scouts!
5 pp · Humor

Little Artie hosts a wild talent show where contestants take the stage to perform—a ditch-digger belts out "The Road to Mandalay" with disastrous results, and a spirited dancer's enthusiastic tap routine nearly brings down the house. It's the kind of madcap variety show where nobody's quite prepared for what happens next, and the laughs come fast and loose.

The News Must Go On!
2 pp · Humor

A brash roving reporter stakes his reputation on predicting a volcanic eruption in Africa, confident he'll deliver the scoop of a lifetime—but as Salter Seesal soon discovers, being a newsman committed to the story means staying on air no matter what chaos unfolds around him. This zany 1954 humor piece from Eh! #2 proves that sometimes the real eruption is the reporter's determination to keep broadcasting, come what may.

The Four Mosquitoes!
7 pp · Humor

Four bumbling mosquitoes—the brash D'Artonion, the scholarly Apos, the brawny Pathos, and the charming Alamis—band together as unlikely heroes sworn to protect their Queen against the schemes of the treacherous Cardinal Kitchikieu. When a sultry spy is sent to intercept them and steal a royal diamond necklace, these four must use their wits, fists, and sheer audacity to outwit her and save the day in this wild, slapstick parody that turns swashbuckling adventure on its head.

Eh's Wails!
1 pp · Humor

Producer B.C. Shlemeel dreams up increasingly outlandish movie processes—Squeefezerama, Smellor-ama, Atomor-ama—each wilder and more disastrous than the last, throwing Hollywood into chaos one ridiculous premiere at a time. When his schemes finally catch the eye of the income tax man, Shlemeel learns that even a three-billion-dollar business loss can't save you from the ultimate process: a one-way trip to the big house. A madcap romp through 1954's Tinseltown full of celebrity cameos, terrible puns, and slapstick comeuppance.
