Kafloppos Tuesday!

I.....


.... don't get it.

I know they had a lot of pages to fill on a monthly basis, but what the heck was that?  It's from Action #102, so it's not like they weren't used to the grind by now.  I'm just not seeing the entertainment value here.  I mean, what editor saw this and said, "Oh, yeah.  That's going in the next issue of one of our best-selling comics!"?  

The Golden Age had some mighty low standards at times.  Perhaps they didn't know they were making Golden Age comics...

I'll see you tomorrow!

it was clearly written by the same person who did that other comic that you posted a long while back. about those two women who led two different lives, and one of them were wearing a weird-looking hat at the end.

as I recall, that one didn't make much sense neither.

The only reason you don't get it is because you're a Kafloppo.

That's a little suggestive, don't you think? She wants that guy's "very best seed" and "plays the hose for all it's worth." In addition to selling a bunch of jars, the guy in panel 4 looks like he knows he's about to get his jimmy smoked.

The only reason they published this is because they're kafloppo at weeding too...

If I'm not mistaken, this is a WWII era comic and the piece is meant to remind people to weed their Victory Gardens.
