James Lileks makes fun of old comic book covers
James Lileks is having a grand old time poking fun at old comic book covers in a new section of his website called "Funny Books: Dubious Moments in Comic History."LinkThe POPular Teen-agers go the beach, where the sand is GRANular, then get on a tiny boat about seven feet long. After heading into the open waters with no training whatsoever, followed by birds who expect they will pick the corpses clean soon. They fish. A ”snicker-filled story” presumably follows. If you want to give yourself a headache, attempt to figure out the sequence of events that led to Honey Bunn holding Butch in a posture that defies gravity, the rules of the sea, and basic common sense.
Note that Butch appears to be afraid of tuna.
