That did NOT make me want a Twinkie.

Second panel, wtf?
FACE IN BREAST.

How seriously high was someone at the ad agency?

If that was made today that movie star wouldn't even look at the twinkies.

Here's the parody (http://img468.imageshack.us/img468/5819/inkblotae5.jpg) for any Watchmen fans out there.

Fantastic.

Wow. Just wow. See, now this is what happens when you don't have a licensed electrician do the wiring for your giant movie sign.

Cooky La Moo? I can't even figure out what actress/model/whatever that's supposed to be based upon.

Is the guy Steve Trevor or Steve Howard?

So, Cooky has a Twinkie, is sated, and everyone is just fine with that? Nobody cares that there's a 60 foot tall woman in Times Square?

That photographer in the last panel appears to be taking a picture of Wonder Woman's backside.

That made no sense at all. Unanswered questions, what I mean to say.

...Wha?

[salenelle.livejournal.com]

Suffering Sappho? The allegedly Lesbian poet of...way back in the ancient Greek times? What's SHE got to do with it? I guess about as much as ol' Hermes, Greek messenger god... and how many Steves does it take to make this make sense? And how is a tiny Twinkie or two going to satiate a 60 foot woman-gone-berserk?

Tune in next time...

When I was a kid I had a very old issue of what might have been a Road Runner comic that had a very similar ad for Twinkies starring the Incredible Hulk. :D

I wish I still had that comic book, it had all kinds of great ads in it - x-ray specs and sea monkees for all!
