Walter Lantz Woody Woodpecker #104
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Adventure in Subcropia" finds Woody Woodpecker caught in a bizarre underground world, where the usual chaos takes a turn for the surreal—perfectly captured in this 1969 Western Comics issue. The story unfolds across a series of wild, imaginative sequences, illustrated with the energetic flair of John Carey, Ralph Heimdahl, and the full team behind the Western Publishing Production Shop, with Carey also handling the cover pencils and inks.
Woody Woodpecker’s latest mission takes him beneath the waves in a high-tech crop-dusting rig, defending Mr. Flora’s underwater plant farm from hungry fish. But when his precision spraying disrupts a secret smuggling operation, he finds himself tangled with two sneaky smugglers and a pair of unlikely allies—Knothead and Splinter—on a wild underwater chase.
Woody Woodpecker thinks he’s landed a big break when he signs a contract to join the circus—only to discover he’s been sent on a wild quest to Africa to capture a legendary roaring flea. With Knothead in tow and a circus lion, a circus hand, and even a jungle lion in the mix, the hunt for the tiny, thunderous insect turns into a chaotic adventure full of mistaken identities and feathered antics.
Chilly Willy’s plans for a winter getaway go hilariously awry when Homer Pigeon invites him on a "northern" vacation—only to discover that, from the South Pole, sunny Florida is technically north. With the mailman pelican, Waldo Whale, Bully Bear, and the twins Ping and Pong caught in the mix, Chilly’s icy resistance to the cold takes a surprisingly warm twist.
