 Ol’ George #91

Notes:

1. If there’s an animal going viral, we’ll find a way to spoof’em. This is a side of the little guy no one’s seen yet.

2. When you need some freaks to populate the bar, naturally you will think of Schlitzie the Pinhead from Tod Browning’s “Freaks”or the cenobites from Clive Barker’s Hellraiser franchise. The instant martians from Chuck Jones’ Marvin the Martian Looney Tunes made sense to me, as did the one you might not know, the guy dressed as, well, a flaming carrot. Flaming Carrot was created by Bob Burden in 1979 and appeared in his own comic, off and on, from 1986 to 2006. He assumed this identity after reading 5000 comic books in one sitting, his true identity never revealed. He is my favorite superhero. 

He is the only one among this crowd to not appear on the silver screen. No, that honor went to Mr.Furious, The Shoveller, and the rest of his teammates from the Mystery Men.
