The initial copyright record (B319389) erroneously shows a date of "1966-12-08" for both issue #5 and #6. The copyright renewal record (RE679600) gives the correct date for issue #5 as "1966-09-08". This accurately reflects the fact that a Gold Key comic with a date of December 1966 in its indicia would have been on sale in September 1966.

The Twister Resisters

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
anthropomorphic, superhero
The Beagle Boys (splash-page cameo only); police desk sergeant; construction workers; angry man in window; newsboy; paper-purchasing pedestrian; first farmer; first farmer's wife; wind-imperiled chickens; second farmer; Dr. Ruah (mad scientist and unscrupulous land-grabber)
Super Goof has done a superb job of stamping out crime...
After a few super-power related mishaps, Super Goof accidently reveals his secret identity as Goofy to genius nephew Gilbert. The pair conclude Super Goof needs to augment his brawn with brain so Goofy invites his brainy nephew to swallow a Super Goober and become “Super Gilbert”. The “Super-Twosome” plan works well and, after defeating a mad scientist who creates man-made twisters to level and devalue the surrounding countryside into “cheap land acquisitions”, Super Goof and Super Gilbert (later called “Super Gilly”) become a regular recurring team for the rest of the Western Publishing run.
