I want to know exactly who thought it would be a great idea to make this comic.
|
Does anyone else think it strange that "Wide-Load" sports a Princess Leia 'do - many years before there was a Princess Leia? It makes you wonder what George Lucas was reading in those days.
Pure, ripe, smelly Gorgonzola. For sheer unintentional humor value, Proto, this was the world's best bargain. |
since when is 1983 before princess leia
|
God, I hope the next 6 issues answer all of the questions left by the first 6... otherwise, I'll have to kill myself before I go mad!

Marvel's attempt at trying to break into the truckers demography of comic book readers failed miserably.
|
Well, this was the era of BJ and the Bear, Smokey and the Bandit, Convoy ect...
There was a well established trucker fad in the late 70s the Marvel was clearly trying to cash in on. Looks like they jumped on the bandwagon a little late with this awful book. I'm amazed this made it a whole 12 issues. |
I bet Jack Burton used to read this comic. And I expect to see at least one reference to him and/or Maximum Overdrive in the next Longbox installment!

I love the 99 cent box (used to be the 25 cent box) where you could find a gluttony of Radioactive Adolescent Black-belt Hamster books and of course the two-issue Theown series. Ahh the Charlotte Heroes Convention, how I miss you! |
Wow, this is like a Redneck version of Speed Racer!
This also looks horrible. Protoclown, you're a very brave person for reading this. I commend you! |
Goofy as all hell, but is it wrong of me to want to know how it ends? *laughs*
|
it sucks.... yet it's hard not to read, it's like cocaine, or some other drug. lol
i'd expect "Over The Top" references though lol |

I'm amazed no one else pointed out that US's truck sort of resembles Optimus Prime.
|
apart from protoclown, you mean?
|
Always I wonder: how on earth did they manage to get this team of relatively talented people to shit out 12 issues of that crap? Who paid for this?
There's no way this was a commercial success. I think X-Men might have paid for thousands of issues of Crystar and Trolls comics. |
2nd page on the 11th pic down, is he wearing heels???
|
i think they're cowboy boots

Never before have we seen a superh... Su.. He... Action comic book lead with nothing interesting associated with him, aside from trucks and cliches. Clearly the mankind is safe in the hands of US1. Oh bother...
|
Thank you Protoclown.
