Mighty Mouse Album #1
In "The Wayward Mouse," Mighty Mouse finds himself falsely accused by Oil Can Harry, who uses a comically flimsy inflatable balloon to frame him for a string of pranks in Terrytown. With public opinion swinging wildly from cheers to calls for his hanging, it’s up to Pearl Pureheart to rally support and prove Mighty Mouse’s innocence. Art by Jim Tyer brings the chaotic antics and shifting mob moods to life in this 1952 classic.

Oil Can Harry frames Mighty Mouse for a series of pranks and misdeeds against the citizens of Terrytown, proving his "guilt" to the exceedingly fickle crowd (that alternately cheers him or wants him hanged with incredibly rapid shifts of mood) using a poorly fashioned Mighty Mouse inflatable balloon. Can Pearl Pureheart turn (and keep) the tide of public opinion firmly "for" our hero?
