Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for July 18, 2022

Using her special ingredient.

Did your mom or wife do that for you?

Wow, talk about savoring that brownie. He takes soo long to eat it, he needs to shave his beard off again!

What be a brownie?

TMNT?

Turtles fight with honor!

Nice job, Wiz. Are you hiding,though?

It must be on the inside – because we can’t see it on the outside.

reminds me of my “Rat Patrol” lunch box…..

The new video game of it is hot!!!

The first time that I (I know others may have already) have seen “Young Wiz”!

Anyone know what the white “X” in the lower right hand area is for? It’s in every comic and nothing happens after you click it and it disappears. Kinda creepy.

The question is, why are they sitting OUTSIDE the break room?

“I hope you brought enough for everybody.” I didn’t know there would be so many. Bang!!!

Awww how cute! The WIZ…early years

An anachronism in the Wizard’s youth and in his later years. Magical fantasy allows for anachronisms.

I remember the shows I used to watch on PBS Kids. I doubt I could recognize any PBS shows now, except for Sesame Street.

Many years ago two guys were taking a break from their job search and watching movies and reading comic books in the basement of one of their homes. One was sketching a figure based on the samurai movie they were watching at the time and showed it to his friend “Look a ninja turtle”. His friend was reading an X-Men comic and replied, “Make it a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.” He did and made a comic one shot and they decided to self publish. Got a loan from the father of one of the guys and had about 500 copies printed up. They distributed it to several comic book shops of which they were patrons. About a day later they got a call from one of the shops, “Got any more? We’ve sold out.” The rest is history.

Most of us can be reduced to our kiddie selves with comfort food! This is one sweet comic today!

Brownies have a way to brighten up any day….

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

You know, I can afford Twinkies whenever I want them, but I never buy them and yet I do get excited when someone gives me one. Not sorry.

There was an ad on the radio around the time the TMNTs were popular. I can’t remember what the ad was for, but at the very end a kid is asking his parent “Can we get ALL of the Turtles?” BTW, my son had the action figures of most of the various characters, but we never did get into the later additions such as “Swimming Leonardo”.

Once upon a time when TVs sound came on before the video, my sister got so excited because she heard her name, April. Mine is so common it was everywhere. She was rather upset after watching the commercials that it was TMNT.

Apparently, Wiz did not grow back to his normal size by the last frame!

What’s up with the Wiz’s cap/hat ?

The Break Room is actually where the keep the Rack for the times they need to interrogate a Hun.

Wiz would more likely have had a Lone Ranger lunch box and Tonto Thermos when he was young. (It would have some milk, a PB&J sandwich, potato chips, an apple, and a brownie, I imagine.)
