Notes:
Illustrates the issue's lead story.
Notes:
Ad for a metal candle holder adorned by metal angels striking chimes, for which “heat from lighted candles makes angels revolve continuously”. Only $1.98 complete with candles from Illinois Merchandise Mart. Black and white ad on inside front cover.
Notes:
When the story was later reprinted in a Gold Key Comic - Mighty Mouse (Western, 1964 Series) #162 (January 1965) - it was retitled "The Steel Slaves".
Notes:
This story is not a comic-book adaptation of the 1945 Mighty Mouse theatrical short "Mighty Mouse in Krakatoa", which has a very different plot.
Notes:
In this story, Mighty Mouse has a “brownish-gray coloring” rather than his usual black, and small, but noticeable, protruding “mouse front teeth”.
Notes:
While there is a 1947 Mighty Mouse theatrical animated short also titled "Aladdin's Lamp", this comic story is not an adaptation of that cartoon.
Notes:
While not an actual adaptation or remake, this story incorporates elements of the 1946 Mighty Mouse theatrical animated short "Throwing the Bull", directed by the comic story's artist Connie Rasinski.
Notes:
This story is a comic book adaptation of the 1947 Mighty Mouse theatrical animated short "Crying Wolf", directed by Connie Rasinski, but omitting certain elements of the cartoon for presumed brevity.
Notes:
This story is signed twice by Connie Rasinski. His full name on the splash panel of page one, and his initials "CR" on the final panel of page six.
Notes:
Good Bit: The text describes the beating that Mighty Mouse gives the cat as follows: "In fact, it is said that to this day Canvasback is so sore, he winces if you breathe on him."
Notes:
As a New York based publisher working with a New York Based studio in the late-1940s thru the mid-1950s, the "Dodgems" and the "Pigmies" are clearly parodies of the Brooklyn Dodgers and the New York Giants.
Notes:
