Notes: A "most valuable top secret film ... stolen from Americans" that Combat and Cookie capture from the Communists turns out to be a "Buck Duck cartoon comedy!" The image that appears in the last panel is the cover of Buck Duck 3 (Oct 1953), with the word balloon omitted but the A.C.M.P. comics code seal retained, and the title logo rearranged.
