CROSSOVER MADNESS

 In the story "Rainbow's End" in FELIX THE CAT #1 (Dell, 1948), the reality-bending feline discovers a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. For some reason, going to the end of the rainbow puts him in some sort of Fairy-Land, where almost all the inhabitants want to horn in on his new riches: Miss Muffet, Bo Peep, Red Riding Hood, Jack and Jill, Hansel and Gretel, and Cinderella. He dodges them by hiding in the home of Old Mother Hubbard and her dog, but to prove he's not a greedhead like everyone else, he fills the old lady's larder with lots of food, and the story ends on that underwhelming note.
