He is assigned to evacuate Resistance fighters from Nazi-held Crete. Whatever crazy situation the Captain and Mama get into while racing around the world, The Kids and their mischief can always make it worse. Bombo accidentally launches himself to Mars in eccentric Professor Butterbilly's rocket. Plus a Tarzan adventure by Burne Hogarth.
