Funny Books: Dubious Moments in Comic History

[Kitsa]

This place is pretty entertaining. I like his other stuff (including his....*wiping away tear*...touching tribute to the Gobbler) and just now found this section.

Butch Dykeman? Really?

[Zomboid]

I read all of those sections a while ago :D

[Kitsa]

Well, they're good.

I've been reading his site for a while. The Gallery of Regrettable Food is what drew me in, all those crazy pictures. I'm sure that's right up your alley Kitsa. I love old ugly food photography.

All kinds of cool stuff on his site. Just like I-Mock, you can spend hours reading all the archives. I like the matchbook covers, and the ghost ads sections. And yes, the Gobbler.

I never did get to see where it was last weekend. My sister drove, and wasn't interested in stopping in Johnson Creek. Oh well. I've saved every picture I could find!

[Kitsa]

Yeah, he got me with the Gobbler. I've been going since the mid-90s when his decapitated Swanson women showed up on an early incarnation of cruel.com.

Oh well. There's not much in Johnson "Crick" (as some locals seem to call it) anyway, other than the cat-skinning place and the ridiculous dinner theatre, which are really closer to the nearly-impossible-to-navigate Fort Atkinson.

Where's Pub?

Oh, he's heating the mixture if you know what I mean.

I'm totally checking this out.
