☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Hammock Havoc," the ever-resourceful Felix the Cat finds himself trapped in Dreamland after a surplus of Magic Sleeping Water leaves him immune to the King’s latest expulsion scheme. When the Dreamland army charges, Felix grabs a horse from the stables—only to discover it’s a night-mare that spirals into a dragon, an octopus, a shark, and a bizarre, elongated sea monster before he can escape. After narrowly surviving the transformation, he stumbles into the mysterious and unsettling Nightmare Land. Written by Otto Messmer and Joe Oriolo, with art and inks by Joe Oriolo, and featuring cover art by Joe Oriolo, this 1956 Harvey Comics classic delivers surreal chaos with a signature whimsy.
Felix the Cat downs a vial of Magic Sleeping Water and slips into Dreamland, where whimsy reigns—until a grumpy woman yanks him awake. He repeats the cycle twice more, each time diving into fantastical dreams only to be rudely woken. On his fourth try, the King of Dreamland declares he’s used up his daily visits and banishes him from the realm.
In "The Runaround," Felix the Cat finds himself the target of the King of Dreamland’s latest expulsion scheme, but his recent dose of Magic Sleeping Water keeps him stubbornly in place. When the Dreamland army charges, Felix flees on a horse from the stables—only to discover it’s a night-mare that transforms into a dragon, an octopus, a shark, and finally a bizarre, elongated sea monster before he can escape. Now lost, he stumbles into the eerie realm of Nightmare Land.
In "Nightmare Land," Felix the Cat stumbles into a surreal realm of bizarre terrors, where every shadow and strange creature feels all too real. As his nightmare unfolds, the relentless efforts of the cat-loathing lady to revive him seem to echo through each twisted scene, blurring the line between dream and dread.
In "Tightrope Escape," Felix the Cat finds himself in a perilous predicament, caught between an octopus and a pack of wild jungle animals aboard a ship. With quick thinking, he uses a line attached to a large tropical bird, setting it free to seek a safer landing—then steps onto the taut line, walking it with feline flair toward the unknown.
