Stanley And His Monster

During the period that the Iron Man and Submariner story was published, the name "Stan Lee" also appeared on fantasy series at DC comics, only it was spelled "Stanley". The Stanley in question was a little boy, who had a pet monster which only he could see. They later were joined by a leprechaun, a dwarf, and a ghost who claimed he was Napoleon, none of whom were ever seen by anyone else but the little boy. The series can be seen as similar to both BARNABY and CALVIN AND HOBBES.

"Hare Today, Gone Tomorrow" - TOMAHAWK #140

This may not be the greatest Bugs Bunny story ever, but it comes #@&$ close. Well, not really, as a matter of fact it isn't really even a Bugs Bunny story, but it looks like him. And the wily wabbit wascal wins out in the end.

Tarantula Meets Fly

The Tarantula was a predecessor of Spider-Man who used webbing to snare his foes. In this story, his supply of silk is threatened both by World War II rationing and a supervillian known as the Fly. The story ends as such stories usually do both in comics and real life, with the spider triumphing over the fly.
