Rubes by Leigh Rubin for August 01, 2021

“Every time a cowbell rings, a cow gets its wings.” And don’t forget the obligatory: “More cowbell!!!”

Holy cow(s).

Where’s the beef?

Imagine the mess they’ll leave on your car.

“Any therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.”

Made me udder a bit of a mooann.

“It’s a Wonderful Cartoon”

A cow gets it’s wings and I get a cheese burger! Can’t wait till pigs fly!

What would you ring if those were pigs in that line.

MORE COW BELL!!!

Love the clever reference to It’s a Wonderful Life (also love that several comments here caught it).

Holy cows.

Cue Harry Caray.

For some reason, the meaning of this cartoon was evident. Thank you. Great cartoon.

OK GOT IT NOW

Keep the line mooving.

They just have to wait their turn in line. They don’t have to say anything. In fact, the one just getting his wings couldn’t udder a thing.

Why do Sunday comics require research

Is this were holy cow comes from?

Oh that me more than a coupla seconds, but yeah, it was worth it! Well done, Rubin, well done!
