The stories

“Just for Funds”

A mouse motorist calls on Mighty Mouse for emergency automobile road service of a different kind.

“Dart Men of the Moon”

A space force of mouse astronauts, headed by Professor Edam and Mighty Mouse, is bound for the (then) planet Pluto. The Claw’s agents, including a traitorous mouse posing as Professor Edam, sabotage the rocket fleet so that it will barely reach the moon before running out of power. Waiting for them on the moon is villainous Professor Ohm, who has formed a secret alliance with a tribe of “dart men” to attack and overcome the mice upon landing.

“The Hoodlum Gang”

A baby mouse in a stroller accidently rolls downhill from Mouse-Town to Cat-Town, falls into the clutches of The Claw and Professor Ohm, and is raised as a tough juvenile delinquent. Taking the name “Mugger Mouse”, he is sent back by the cats to corrupt the youth of Mouse-Town. As crime rises under the influence of Mugger Mouse, Mighty Mouse is left to wonder how even he can combat rampant juvenile delinquency - especially when the young punks dismiss his efforts with a resounding "Drop dead!"

“The Sword Box”

Heckle and Jeckle attempt to fool Dimwit with the old "passing swords through a box while one of the magpies is inside" trick. But what might happen if the bird outside the box is distracted by an attractive lady bird?
