Caption Contest 64: Headliner!

We're going to do something a little different for this week's caption contest. Usually I put up a comic book panel with the words whited out, and you have to try to come up with the funniest or best replacement dialog. But this week, you're going to do what I do with the Daily Random Panels -- come up with the best headline to make the comic book panel below perfect:

greenmask-3-1940-getitup

So for instance, some possibilities I thought of for this one were "This is the worst fantasy ever!"; "How can I with all this pressure and shouting?!"; "Bad days to forget your thumbtacks"; "Bob's Last Day as the Green Masked Bulletin Poster"; etc.

The rules are simple:

  1. All entries must be left as a comment or comments to this post;
  2. Only three entries per person;
  3. Keep it appropriate for a general audience, which I usually describe as something that would pass network censors for a prime-time broadcast television program.

The winner will receive either a portrait of their head or any one item they like to be included in the HeroMachine 3 final version. You have one week, so good luck everyone!
