Cover by L. B. Cole. Stories and art by Bill Savage and Brian Savage. A funny-animal comic presenting multi-chapter adventures and featuring work by pioneering cartoonists such as L.B. Cole from Rural Home Publishing Company. In an issue-length Wonderworm epic, Happy Village is threatened by the schemes of Sooper Dooper, drawn to resemble an insect version of Hitler. Wiggles transforms into Wonderworm, but Mayor Rabbit is secretly colluding with Sooper Dooper, while hostile forces lay siege to Happy Village and cut off its food supply. The final battle is the sort of strange combination of funny-animal action and WWII propaganda that typifies the national mindset at the time.
