Rubes by Leigh Rubin for September 16, 2024

The cow won.

Superman lost his “S”?

or the day he got soooo hammered, he was talking to cows

he’s lying. he can see right through his story

A thousand bucks? That’s a lot of doe.

I have seen a lot of cows and never seen one jump. They prefer to go through a fence rather than over it.

Must be the pre-Fleischer Bros cartoon Superman. It was easier to animate flying than jumping over buildings and running after the bad guys.

…I’ve never seen a purple cow…

In order to affect Superman, booze needs to be spiked with kryptonite…..

Marvel’s parody of Superman in Not Brand Echh was, if memory serves, “Faster than a speeding pullet … More powerful than a loco motorboat … Able to leap tall bulldogs with a single bound!”

“Bet”sy the cow.

Moon? Big deal. Superman can go to the next planet or even galaxy!

Superman clearly has got the cow conned into thinking that’s the best he can do. He’s the one who’s about to become $1,000 richer.
