Steve takes a stab at political humor.

Bear with my craptacular image editing skills, but I simply had to do this.

I'll admit I'm not as... politically charged this year as most of you. I'm burned out and cynical about the political process. As far as I'm concerned the Presidency is up for grabs between a Chicago machine politician that's been heralded as the new FDR and an old geezer who's running eight years too late to have a good Presidency (Steve Fun Fact: in 2000, my first election, I wrote in McCain because I couldn't bear to vote for Bush and wasn't going to vote for Gore at all.) and has had to suck up to the bitchy, my-way-or-the-highway-'cause-I'll-stay-home-on-election-day conservatives, completely destroying his moderate and bipartisan credentials.

But I had this thought, and it was simply too good to pass up.



I'll note that you'll get the maximum enjoyment out of this if you've actually seen the JLU episode "The Great Brain Robbery", and the scene of Flash-in-Lex's-body replying to Dr. Polaris asking "Are you going to wash your hands?" Flash, trying to pretend to be a supervillain, answered, well, the joke should make that clear.

P.S. Thanks to JME2 for helping me get the image, I'm unable to capture or take screenshots ATM.

Good job, I rather like it.

At the same time, I'm reminded of that previous confrontation between Luthor and Question: "That's right, conspiracy buff, I spent seventy-five million dollars on a fake presidential campaign just to piss Superman off. Do you have any idea how much power I'd have to give up in order to become president?"

Excellent subject matter, but the words' color is eyeball-shattering. Try speech bubbles?

Uhhh.... hrm. Never tried to do those before.

[Steve]

And for that small minority that feel otherwise, never let it be said I'm unfair.

[JME2]

Very nicely done, Steve.

Very nicely done, Steve.

Thanks, couldn't have done it without you.

[Einhander Sn0m4n]

Bingo! Post it in Political Cartoonz please?

[Steve]

The joke only really works for people who've seen the show though.

Late to the party: it would be improved by moving Dr. Polaris' speech bubble to the far upper-left so it doesn't obscure his face.

[Pulp Hero]

Out of context: Eh.

In context: Pretty damn funny.

I'm thinking lower left myself, but yeah.
