A seven-panel comic. A Mickey-Mouse-like figure called Lord Mickey, seated, sternly orders a uniformed military general to sit down. He asks if the general really wants to attack 'them,' warning that the resulting 50 billion dollars in lost ticket sales 'won't make me happy.' The general protests about honor and pleads, sweating. Lord Mickey says he might start feeling 'GOOFY' (panel cuts to a menacing Goofy-like figure looming) 'a little...' The final panel is an extreme close-up of an enraged Mickey face next to a figure holding a gun, implying mob-boss-style violence. Caption: 'Putting a Disney World in every nation is the cheapest way to end war forever.' Votey: hand-lettered text in a box reads '(with apologies to Jack McLaren and Pat Spacek, wherever they are).'
