Caption Contest 50

If you want to win your own custom black and white illustration of (almost) anything you like, put on your comedian hat and come up with the funniest caption for this comic book panel:

stormwatch-1-aegis-1994

I love the guy's expression. And his giant shoulders hunched over the relatively tiny-looking gun. Apparently I'm sick.

As always, the rules are simple. Leave no more than three (3) entries in the comments to this post, preferably keeping them somewhat suitable for a general audience. I'll choose and announce a winner in one week, who will receive a custom black and white illustration of whatever they like (within reason). That's it! So either get busy funny or get busy ... um, not being funny. Or something.

  2. Skiriki says:

    1) “I feel inadequate!”
    2) “What the hell is wrong with this gun?”
    3) “Guys, we’re in trouble now. I got Liefelded!”

  3. XStacy says:

    1. How do I turn this thing off?!

    2. You said it was set on stun!

  4. collex says:

    -What??? This gun firepower is OVER 9000!

  5. Niall Mor says:

    I hate commuting.

    For the last time, no, I do not wanna buy a flower!

  6. Niall Mor says:

    Off topic: I can’t tell what’s supposed to be happening in this panel. Is he standing there shooting things, flying over a landscape, or what? I’m beginning to see why you hate Liefeld’s art so much šŸ™‚

  7. Jeff Hebert says:

    I really should credit these, sorry Niall. It’s actually art by Dwayne Turner, but it is from 1994-era Image. See, Liefeld was so bad he infected OTHERS. Maybe that’ll be my next “reason”.

    In this panel the main character, with an embarrassment of weaponry, is blowing away enemies with no remorse on a featureless field of flame, while other hugely-muscled teammates pose and flex. You know, the standard.

  8. Danny Beaty says:
