Fire the Cartoonist

The New Yorker "Cartoon Caption Contest 168" left a sour taste in my mouth.


My entry was in the ballpark with a "Fantastic Four" reference:

If you think that's "fantastic," you should try one of Johnny Storm's crepe flambes.

Here are the winners:

• Apparently, even the Fantastic Four can feel the pinch of the recession. - I can't believe that this was the best of the lot that made the F4 connection. Mine was more subtle.
  
  
• Please try not to stare at his disproportionately short right arm. - I actually like this one.
  
  
• The first course has been described as a taste explosion. - comci, comca
