The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for July 16, 2012

Corn mayhem! Hey, it sells.

Hmmm, let me guess…

If it crashed with a butter truck…

I’ve seen this before. I think it’s a cereal.

At least there’s a kernel of real information tonight…Usually Channel 5 newscasts are nothing but corny banter.

Funny thing is, hwy 175 actually goes through Cobb, alongside Cobb Mountain, 60 miles or so from here,

And all those corny news shows are just an attempt to make the stations pop- ular.You have to take everything they report with a grain of salt.

Love the picture of his dad on the wall.

His favorite ‘Hogans Heros’ character is kernel Klink.

It’s good to know that reporter kept her ear to the ground.But, I’m not sure there is a kernel of truth to the story.With the heat wave we’re having, i don’t think the truck would have to catch on fire for the corn to pop.Afterwards, the leftover would be piping hot.

Kind of korny.

They brought in some old maids for clean up.

The news crew was there on the spot because they were stalking the truck.

Now for a word from our sponsor, Dr Graybow’s genuine corn-cob pipes . . . .☻

Notice the monitor feet. It looks like the feet of the cob-announcer.

actually, you wouldn’t refer to it as a load of “cobs”. it would be called a load of “ear corn”. typically, “cobs” refers to what are left when the kernels are shelled off.

i am a farmer’s daughter and a farmer’s wife from iowa so i think i know what i’m talking about!

stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

did he get rear ended?

beviek: It would help to be specific. That thing runs (under various assumed names) from Laredo to Edmonton (when it doesn’t come to a complete stop like Central Expressway in Dallas.

Bad porfredding, close those parentheses after Dallas.

Aw shucks.

I don’t know about anyone else…but..this comic is corny today….

Some of the scenes were pretty amaizing.

Barnyard Corn-ography….First in the Series of….>>wait for it…>>>here it comes…>>>>>“Highway Shuckers; The Early Ears”

Shucks! That just sounds corny to me! BTW,doesn’t the anchorman look kind of husky?

Crows + Corn = a disaster

I love the comments on this one. I give Jreckard bonus points for the amaizing pun. :D

Brilliant comic, for sure.
