The Day the Comics Died

("American Pie" lyrics by Don McLean, changed slightly by me)

[Intro]
A long, long time ago
I can still remember how those funnies used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people laugh
And maybe they'd be happy for a while

But February made me shiver
With every paper I'd (not) deliver
Bad news on the TV station
I couldn't take one more cancellation

I can't remember if I cried
When I read there'd be no Far Side
But something touched me deep inside
The day the comics died

[Chorus]
So bye-bye, Beetle Bailey
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
And those news-readin' geezers were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin' "This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die"

Stanley's Brain

Peak Fun Megacorp announces the galactic release of a new 8-page full B&W comic!

Times have been slow around the old megacorp, but now we have finally managed to trickle out a few more sweat-logged pages of comicy goodness! It's like squeezing blood from a turnip, I tell you, but nevertheless we think you'll agree the wait has been worth it! It's a rollicking good time in this short comic featuring Dr. Stanley, a brand new Invention from the fertile minds at PFM! He has a beard and Dennis the Menace style hair-do! Enjoy!
