When a traveling entertainer named Salami catches the eye of King Furookie, his infatuation sets off a chain of mishaps that lands both her and the Grand Vizier in serious trouble.

When a dispute over water bills erupts between the Looneys and their landlord, the family's secret is nearly exposed—Llewellyn has been running a skating rink on the roof, and the ice buildup is thicker than anyone bargained for. Written and illustrated by Colin Allen, "Cheap Freeze" captures the chaos of a household where the residents and their landlord are locked in perpetual conflict, neither willing to back down over the mysterious water consumption.

Errant Boys
1 pp · humor · script Colin Allen · pencils Colin Allen · inks Colin Allen

The Looneys are a family of well-meaning but hopelessly absent-minded errand-runners, and when young Llewellyn is sent to fetch groceries, he predictably returns with something entirely different—setting off a chain reaction of comic mishaps as other family members head out to correct his mistake. What unfolds is a madcap evening of crossed wires and increasingly ridiculous substitutions that tests the patience of the family matriarch and leaves everyone wondering what could possibly go wrong next.

Hide and Sick!
1 pp · humor · script Colin Allen · pencils Colin Allen · inks Colin Allen

When Lena mentions tossing out Leroy's old brown shoes and Ludwig's old derby hat, she's actually pulling a prank—but the joke backfires spectacularly when the garbage truck hauls away the trash before anyone can stop it. As the family scrambles to retrieve the garbage, a shocking discovery sends everyone into absolute chaos: there's money hidden in both items, and now they're racing against time to get it all back before it's gone for good.

Sparring Partners
1 pp · humor · script Colin Allen · pencils Colin Allen · inks Colin Allen

Pop and Uncle Axel are launching a business venture together, and the household is buzzing with optimism about their chances—but when Junior falls head over heels for a peculiar creature at the pet shop, Pop's hopes for peace and quiet take a nosedive. As the mysterious "puppy" settles in with the family, chaos spirals in unexpected directions.

The Thing in the Window
5 pp · humor; satire-parody

A young boy spots something mysterious in a window and brings home a monstrous houseguest that quickly wears out its welcome—literally and figuratively—as the creature's playful chaos tests the patience of everyone under the roof. When tensions reach a breaking point, the family discovers that sometimes the real monster isn't the one you expected, delivered with the absurdist humor that defines this 1954 tale from Bughouse.

Strife With Father
5 pp · humor; satire-parody

Cheddar Rancid, the Third, loves his papa—a man with a peculiar hobby involving an ever-rotating parade of wives and a suspiciously active "secret room" in the family's haunted mansion. When Cheddar's well-meaning schoolteacher decides to pay a home visit to help the boy with his troubles, she gets far more of an education in family dynamics than she bargained for. This 1954 humor tale serves up dark comedy with a macabre twist on the old "meet the parents" scenario.
