The Mighty God King is deciding now on the winner of Caption Contest 26, but while we tremble in fear awaiting his selection we can go ahead with Caption Contest 27. In keeping with Rob Liefeld Week, I challenge you to come up with the funniest possible dialog to put in the balloon of the following Rob Liefeld Panel:

You can tell it's a Rob Liefeld Panel because a) there are no feet present, b) everyone's mouth is at an anatomically impossible angle and c) there's no background. What will differentiate it this time around, however, is that you are going to make it at least have funny dialog. As always, here are the Three Laws of Funny Captioning:

1. A maximum of three submissions per person.
2. Entries should be made in the comments to this post.
3. Keep it clean, appropriate for a prime-time network sitcom broadcast only, you know, funny.

The winner will receive a free custom black and white illustration by yours truly of whatever they like (within reason), so get that Funny Cap on and get busy!

I'm delighted to announce that this week's Caption Contest is celebrity guest-judged by The Mighty God-King! He's graciously taken a few moments from planning his takeover of the Legion of Super-Heroes to come up with the blank panel for this week, and will decide on the winner. Come up with the funniest replacement dialog for the balloon and you'll win a free custom black and white illustration of whatever you like (within reason). And if that means Rex the Wonder-Dog with a Legion flight ring, then so be it!

The rules are simple:

1. No more than three entries per person.
2. Leave your entry in the comments to this post.
3. Keep it clean, the kind of thing that would be appropriate for a prime-time broadcast tv show. Only funnier. MUCH funnier.

And if you get the chance, head over to MGK's site, which unlike this one features actual thoughtful commentary on a wide range of issues besides just people in spandex hitting each other. Apparently there are more than four colors in the world, who knew?!

I take comedy very seriously. But not as seriously as this guy:

Come up with the best caption for the comic book panel above and, if your entry is selected, you’ll win your very own custom black and white illustration of whatever you like (within reason) by yours truly. As always, the rules are simple: Only three entries per person, put your dialog in the comments to this post, and keep it relatively clean (as in, appropriate for a broadcast TV sitcom).

Good luck everyone!

On HeroMachine, that captions check in, but they don't check out! Come up with the best caption for the comic book panel below and, if your entry is selected, you’ll win your very own custom black and white illustration of whatever you like (within reason) by yours truly.
