Super Goof
Super Goof [Goofy]; Mickey Mouse; Chief O'Hara; Black Pete [Peg-leg Pete]; Dirty Dog (villain)
Goofy, who becomes Super Goof when he eats a Super Goober, patrols the city – always alert, always looking for ways to help his fellow man… or mouse.
A bomb is delivered to the home of detective Mickey Mouse. Super Goof mistakenly believes that Black Pete is the guilty party, even though Black Pete is still in prison – so he breaks Pete out, so he can be arrested for the crime.

Inexplicably, Chief O’Hara is called “Captain O’Hara” in this story. Bob Ogle story credit by Joe Torcivia. October 2019. Previous indexer listed Vic Lockman. No indications of "Vic Lockman style dialogue", more humor exhibited than in a typical Vic Lockman story, and this tale appears during a time period when Bob Ogle was writing for Western - including some Super Goof stories - indicate this is more likely Ogle than Lockman.
