Summary
Arthur dislikes the scarier comic books stocked by the local comic-book store since it changed ownership.
Plot
It starts with Arthur remembering when he got his first comic book, buying his first comic book, and DW buying her first comic books at Meteor Comix.
Tales of Grotequely Grim Bunny
Arthur, Fern, and Buster are the best customers at Meteor Comix, but they discover its owner, Freddy K. is leaving. The future owner, Gerald, does not seem interested in running the store.
With Gerald in charge, the store is now very messy, and it seems to only have very dark comics in it. Fern is interested in "Grotesquely Grim Bunny: Guardian of Doom." Buster becomes interested in it, but Arthur fakes interest. They all pay for it.
Fern reads it, and she gets other classmates interested, but it makes Arthur even more scared if it. He has a nightmare where he is inside the comic and so are his friends, but he's the only one scared.
After his nightmare, Pal destroys the comic book. When asked about the plot Arthur admits he did not read it, and then Buster admits he also quit on the first page. Only Fern actually read it, and Binky is now scared of the idea too.
Fern suggests they protest the store. Gerald does not notice, but Freddy K. does. He takes back control of the store. He cleans it up and adds in a "creepy stuff" section that Fern goes to, while Arthur and Buster go to their old favourite comic books.
