Channel Fer News
Phineas, Ferb, and friends build a news studio to help report the local news. This causes the kids to fan out looking for big stories which includes Phineas and Ferb discovering some curious Perry footprints that lead to nowhere??
Turns out Perry is tracking down Doof’s latest caper which involves him testing out a ‘Hide-inator’. This device hides everything it zaps, but before Doof can really test it out Perry causes it to zap all over the place making everything disappear including the kids’ new studio which of course thwarts any attempt at Candace catching them red-handed.

Elect Doof
Doof wants YOU to vote for him to take over the tri-state area.
5 out of 10
Overall another lackluster Phineas and Ferb magazine mainly due to the fact that despite the fact the mag advertises 16 pages of comics, you can take one page off because ‘Elect Doof’ really isn’t a comic. The longer stuff was rather decent with ‘The Convertible’ being a decent strip along with the obligatory long-form from ‘Channel Fer News’, but I don’t think it’s enough to warrant the $5 price tag.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
