The PBF is strong in this one.

The watercolours are charming

[jazzypom]

So charming. :D

I confess when I saw the first panel I was almost taking it seriously... thankfully Mr Gurewitch was not! :)

Hey, doesn't Galactus already have a daughter named Galacta? Why do we always retcon the female gender into a male gender? That just sucks.

[sherkahn]

The guy has been around for millions of years. You know there's gonna be more than one kid.

[althechi]

One-off joke is one-off joke. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

[cainofdreaming]

What do you mean male gender?

Ohh, Galacti, like most true cosmics, are perceived through the subjective view of the beholder. Because we can't fathom their true form. Forgot about that. So, you see a male kid there? Curious, curious.

lol. I'm not really serious. Galactas is still in my collection and it's pretty fun. I'm just tossing stuff around simply because I can. Feel free to treat that as you will, I still think it's a funny two pages.

Yes, how dare this one-off gag strip contradict the continuity firmly established in that parody one shot half a year ago?
Lord knows all one wants from joke comics is consistency, consistency, consistency.

What, how are you saying girls can't play with trucks? Eh? They can be chubby and play with trucks to! >:D

[thanekos]

that's not a soccer ball, that's a buckyball blown up

[crinos]

I am deeply amused by Galactus reading Cosmo.

[greenmask]

Haaah

it's funny AND pretty!

[proteus_lives]

Ha!

[ian_karkull]

A new Gurewitch is worth the price for this book alone. I miss Perry Bible.

[blackruzsa]

A B+? Come on, Galacta, you can do better than that!

Now I need a Magneto magnet on my refrigerator.

[darklorelei]

Do they make those? Cause they totally should.

[endis_ni]

Oh gods, I'm laughing like a well-tickled hyena!

I miss PBF something chronic.

[halloweenjack]

Can anyone post part of Kate Beaton's contribution?

[psychopathicus_rex]

Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh! That's freakin' HILARIOUS. It's made even funnier by how SERIOUS those first few panels are made to look - Gurewitch does an awesome version of Magneto there.
