Synopsis
The Blue Fairy brings Gepetto's wooden puppet Pinocchio to life. Jiminy Cricket is enlisted as his conscience. Pinocchio is captured by the evil showman Stromboli, but is rescued by the Blue Fairy. Not learning a lesson, Pinocchio is then enticed to travel with a coach load of boys to Pleasure Island. There they indulge in bad behavior until the boys turn into donkeys. Pinocchio is saved by Jiminy part-way through the transformation. In the meantime, Gepetto was swallowed by the whale Monstro. Pinocchio and Jiminy search for Monstro and the pair are re-united with Gepetto in Monstro's belly.

Notes
Stated as "Sixth Printing" in the indicia. If Four Color #92 and Four Color #545 are considered the first and second printings, the October 1963 Gold Key issue may be the third printing which means there is a stated fourth printing (needs to be verified); there is a stated "Fifth Printing" with identical cover to the October 1963 (third?) printing. The seventh (and final) printing (not labeled as such in the indicia) is the unnumbered 1982 Whitman issue.
Listed in The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide under the umbrella title MOVIE COMICS, but listed here under its indicia title.
