We'll trick Simba into hanging out with us as he's fulfilling his royal duties! Here's what we're gonna do...
Timon to Pumbaa[src]

Just Lion Around! is an American comic inspired by The Lion King. It was published in April 2002 as part of Disney Adventures. It was one of several comics featured in the issue, which, as part of an April Fool's Day theme, had numerous out-of-place objects drawn into the story, such as Jafar's staff from Aladdin.

Synopsis[]

Timon and Pumbaa beg their friend Simba to go with them to the jungle, just like old times. Zazu tells them that Simba doesn't have any free time because he has to take care of his kingly responsibilities. Simba agrees with Zazu. Timon and Pumbaa keep begging Simba to go with them because they haven't "palled out" in ages. Timon gets sad, saying that Simba will never hang out with them again because of his kingly duties. Pumbaa wishes hanging out was one of Simba's duties. This gives Timon an idea. Their plan is to trick Simba into hanging out with them by framing it as being part of his duties.

After a short while, they find Simba watching over the water hole and decide to execute their plan. Suddenly, Simba hears strange noises coming from the shrub and decides to investigate it. There, he finds strange tracks, which he has never seen before and decides to follow them. He thinks that the tracks are familiar. After a while, Simba stops at the end of the tracks, and Timon pours mud on Simba's head. Simba gets quite angry. He then hears a weird noise coming from the shrub right in front of him. He decides to jump into the shrub, but he ends up in a small lake just under the shrub. He starts to realize that someone might be playing games on him. A few seconds later, Pumbaa jumps into the lake. Then he realizes that Pumbaa and Timon were behind the tricks. After that, Timon comes back with a bunch of grubs for Simba because that is a perfect way to complete the day.
