Go-Go shows up to Tippy Teen's costume party with a secret outfit that sends her father into absolute panic—he's convinced she's eloped after spotting a bridal shop box, and he races to stop what he thinks is a teenage wedding. It's a hilarious mix-up that plays on parental worry and teen rebellion as Go-Go's bold costume choice becomes the talk of the party.

Go-Go WestTippy Teen: Mr. WalstonTommy

Go-Go West falls head over heels for her music teacher, Mr. Walston, during a classical music appreciation class and decides to dedicate herself to the violin—but her screeching practice sessions quickly land her in trouble with the law and the neighbors. When a police officer threatens to arrest her for noise violations, Go-Go appeals to Mr. Walston to vouch for her musical talent, leading to a hilariously ironic twist about what her playing is actually good for. It's a fun romp through teenage crushes, classical music mishaps, and the eternal clash between highbrow culture and rock and roll.

Fortune Hunting

Go-Go WestAnimal

Go-Go visits a fortune teller and learns that following a bearded man will lead to riches, but Animal is convinced the whole thing is pure hokum—until Go-Go's dogged pursuit of a mysterious stranger with a beard lands them both in the middle of a manhunt for a wanted criminal. What starts as a skeptical chase through the city becomes an unexpected chance at fortune, leaving Animal to reconsider his doubts about destiny.

Animal and Go-Go West arrive at what they believe is an exclusive formal dance, only to discover their evening has taken a series of muddy, disastrous turns.

What a Pane!
8 pp
AnimalMr. PhoggMr. Sulfirr

Animal's clumsiness at school earns him an after-school job assignment at the C-Thru Glass Factory—but when Principal Mr. Phogg rushes to the factory without his glasses to check on the fumble-fingered troublemaker, chaos erupts on the factory floor. As Mr. Phogg stumbles blindly through the workplace and Animal tries to warn him of the dangers, the pair sets off a chain reaction of accidents that threatens to demolish the entire operation.

Eater's Digest
1 pp

A hungry customer walks into a restaurant expecting a meal, but discovers the portions are absurdly tiny—a steak so small it requires a microscope to see, milk served in a thimble, and a dessert so minuscule he mistakes it for a postage stamp. Animal delivers the punchline with sharp timing and deadpan humor in this one-page gag story.
