The Saturday Comics: Kool-Aid Man

Remember Kool-Aid Man? The giant living pitcher of sugar that saved the day by screaming “Oh yeah!”?

But this isn’t The Late Night Movie House of Crap, so it is on to the comics. Who thought that Kool-Aid man was a good idea for a comic? Both Marvel Comics and Archie Comics, that’s who. Although they are mixed in the gallery below, the differences between the Archie and Marvel issues is obvious even without the logos. One of those comics below is still in my personal collection. For the record, it is the one where he is in space.

I am also including ads and other material for the Kool-Aid man video game. Yes, I said video game. It had to be a ton of fun, right? Right? Right?

Imponderable #43: Huntington West Virginia

I know what you are thinking. “Damn, I would love to see those court papers!” Well thanks to the internet you can! They are available in full at http://www.inversecondemnation.com/files/rocket.pdf  but I have excerpted the relevant and funny sections here.

This is a negligence case, but  unbelievably, it is against the fraternity, not the asshole who put a rocket in his asshole. The crux of the lawsuit is that there was a broken railing on the roof and there were a railing he never would have fallen off the roof.

I say if he didn’t try to shoot a rocket out of his ass then none of this would have happened. This is what is going to college these days.

How much money will a jury award this jerk? The question is Imponderable.
