I Propose…to Run Away
Buddy, I propose that you run away. Now. Pack lightly. Don’t take more than one fiancée with you…

Last Kiss in Alter Ego #114
You could buy Alter Ego #114 for all the great articles about golden age comic creators such as Allen Bellman (who did the cover) and Don Rico.
Or you could buy it to read my pal Michael T. Gilbert’s amusing and informative piece about the Charles Atlas ads that ran in comic books. (And made all of us comic geeks into the manly, muscled men that we are.)
But mostly you should buy it (on sale at a discounted price here—for now) because it has a full-color page featuring four of my Last Kiss gags about Wonder Woman.

The War Against Christmas (That Fox News Won’t Tell You About!)

Oh, sure. Fox and the rest of the elite (“We have facts—sort of!) media talk a lot about the “War on Christmas!”
But what they don’t tell you is that the real war on St. Nick (and therefore Jesus—because they’re close buddies—isn’t being waged by liberals. It’s guys in tights and capes—or worse.
(Sure, they dress like liberals and they want to take away your guns. But that’s only because they’re evil. Not liberal!)
They’re super villains—and they’re out to get Santa and steal all your presents…

Sweet Dancin’, Sweet Romancin’
Although I often post romance art because it’s so absurd, there’s something about this panel from Brides in Love #1 that I find very sweet.
Bottoms Up for Donald Duck

Now, here’s something you wouldn’t see in an American comic book for kids.
Although this may look like an audition for Last Kiss cheerleaders, it’s actually an ad in a Danish Donald Duck comic book.
This full-page ad appeared in the Oct. 13, 2005 edition of ANDERS And & Co. It’s promoting a movie af banen! (We are the Champions) about a divorced dad who takes over the coaching of his son’s little league soccer team—thus reconnecting with his son. (And earning the love of one of the soccer moms.)
Judging from this photo, he’s also popular with cheerleaders.
