A six-panel comic about the early Steamboat-Willie-style Mickey Mouse entering the public domain. A red-haired man cheerfully says he can draw early Mickey all he likes because Mickey is now public domain, taunting "suck on that," and insists no one would confuse his crude drawing with real Disney work. The crudely-drawn black-and-white Mickey begins to speak back, growing larger and more menacing across the panels. The man's confidence collapses into fear, begging "Please, Mickey! No!" In the final panel a huge, monstrous Mickey looms over him and proclaims, "Look upon my ears, ye mighty, and despair!" Votey: a close-up of the menacing crude Mickey glaring, declaring "I AM FOREVER, MEATLING."
