CAPTION: Last Kiss Presents:
Obscure HallowEEn Hero #2
CAPTION: Bread Boy was the toast
of the town. After he grained
fame, fans started buttering
him up. Women hungered
for him. And men wanted to
taste like him.
Or at least they did until one
day when Bread Boy ran out
of dough! Suddenly no one
wanted him! The nation goes
gluten free! Dieticians declare
him an enemy of the people!
Increasingly Crusty, he becomes a mere crumb of his former self.
But then he meets an amazing muffin at a breakfast bar. In a fancy French toast he proposes marriage. She accepts. And they live happily ever after--because they never get jammed up.

CAPTION: Robbie’s toilet costume was a big, splashy success at the office Halloween party. Tragically, it was simply too realistic when he used the Men’s Room.

This is an adaption of a Comics Buyer’s Guide cartoon I did back in 2004. It appears here in color for the first time and with a new opening caption and some minor edits. Obviously, this was years before either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump were running for office and it has no direct bearing on the current election.
That Said, Here’s What I think about the Election
Even though I’m keeping partisanship out of my actual Last Kiss comics, I’m going to use this blog for the first time to endorse a candidate. Kamala Harris has my full support for president. She started her career as a prosecuting attorney, went on to become Attorney General of California and then a U.S. Senator and currently is, of course, Vice President. She has the experience, intelligence, temperament, vigor and judgement to be an outstanding President.
In the short time since she was thrown into the presidential race, she has come up with many commonsense plans that will benefit middle (and lower) class Americans.
In contrast, the twice-impeached, 34-times-convicted, 78-year-old Donald Trump has a long history of racism, sexism, multiple business bankruptcies and seems far more interested in lowering taxes for billionaires like himself than helping common Americans. To top it all off, he has actually bragged about wanting to be a dictator and says he may send the military to go after any Americans who disagree with him. To me, the choice is clear.

↓ TranscriptCAPTION: Last episode, Mildred Natsplat shocked comicdom by dissecting that old comic book adage about criminals being a “cowardly, superstitious lot!” She theorized that since most crooks are men…women must be more trustworthy!
MILDRED: Given my obvious moral and gender superiority, I have no choice…but to accept my destiny and run for president!
CAPTION: There is, however, one huge obstacle to Mildred’s candidacy!
MILDRED: I’m the best looking, best smelling and best brained candidate! But once voters find out I read comics…will they still vote for me?
CAPTION: Is America ready for a president who understands X-Men continuity?
