In "The Great Riverboat Race," Woody Woodpecker finds himself in over his head when his elaborate lie about being a high-ranking lab technician at a rocket test facility is put to the test—literally—during a school field trip. With Knothead and Splinter counting on his expertise, Woody must improvise his way through a series of increasingly absurd situations to maintain his cover. Art by John Carey and a vibrant cover by Phil De Lara bring the chaotic hijinks to life in this 1964 Western Publishing classic.

In "The Astronut," Woody Woodpecker plays the part of a high-stakes rocket lab insider to impress his young friends Knothead and Splinter—until their school trip to the lab forces him to keep up the charade in front of actual rocket test lab personnel. With a mix of slapstick chaos and kid-friendly espionage, Woody’s elaborate lie takes flight as he tries to maintain his cover while dodging curious eyes and the ever-present threat of being exposed.
