Romance Special: My (Allegedly) Funny Valentines 2008
It’s finally here!
That’s right, friends, tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, and assuming you’ve been following the example set by Jimmy Olsen, you’ve probably found yourself in the company of either your one true soul-mate or a horrible monster of a stewardess. In either case, the only thing you need now is a way to truly express your feelings, and when it comes to strong emotions, that can be a difficult task.
And that’s where I come in! Instead of giving your significant other an expensive, store-bought card this year, why not leave it up to me and my keen sense of ahhhhhhROMANCE by using one of this year’s offerings from the ISB, designed to make your Vamlumtimes the best of times!
Feel free to print ‘em out:




And finally, because I am indeed the worst person alive…

Happy Valentine’s Day, Everybody!
You can find the source material for tonight’s Valentines in the pages of Cromartie High School, Grant Morrison’s Doom Patrol
, I Shall Destroy All the Civilized Planets
, and of course, The Death of Gwen Stacy
.

I wouldn’t say you’re the worst person alive. The customer who wrote me an email in lolcat-speak to make a serious inquiry about our company? He’s worse.
I love the Gwen Stacy one. Because I’m a sick bastard.
Oh, SNAP! That’s funny. Happy V-D to you Chris and I wish you much monkey love this holiday.
gwen stacy. you ARE going to hell. but why miss heaven by a little?
i’m still a giant fan of your horror edition valentines, tho. ^^
It’s me, Sims, Leary, and Scorsese, all on the bus to hell.
I’m now linking the Gwen Stacy one to everyone I know and wishing them a happy Valentine’s day.
Because I am a bad person, and you are my enabler.

Re: Gwen Stacy
Too soon, dude. Too soon.
Cromartie is Super ++ Good Time!!!!
Gorilla My Dreams? Worst pun in world history and a damn fine all girl band in Bristol (England)in the 80s!
Monsieur Mallah & The Brain never appeared in an episode of Love, American Style.
But they should have.
Well all my Valentine’s cards turn into anonymous death threats anyway, so the Swen Stacy one is perfect!
Oh, man.
Well, I may be another of the worst people alive, because I love the Gwen Stacy valentine to no end.
Also, the Brain/Mallah one.
I’m sad that the great love of Brain/Mallah has drawn to a close because of the jealousy of Grodd. Stupid, jealous Grodd…
oh lord– as I was scrolling down the screen happened to cut off just below the words “I’m falling”. As I was reaching for the spacebar, I thought, “He wouldn’t, would he?”
He did!
Nah, if Sims were really sick, he’d give us one Gwen Stacy getting hot and sweaty with Norman Osborn…”Thinking Of You (While I Bone Your Worst Enemy!!)”.
Good thing nobody’s that nasty…
Actually, I think the Gorilla pun is worse than Gwen Stacy.
Speaking of which, PLEASE say you picked up Salvation Run #4, Chris.
You are a bad man, Christopheles Sims…
Great, now Stardust the Wonder Wizard has ruined Valentine’s too. That is not a “little head.” It is, in fact, an freakishly enormous bobble-quality head, attached to little legs – and NOTHING ELSE. Dude has two legs for a neck. Either that, or it’s a Mardi Gras costume and there’s a Lilliputian under all of that face. Either way, it’s nightmare fuel – after which the Gwen Stacy panel is actually something of a relief.
Well played, Chris Sims.
I just had to steal, er, I mean borrow, the Mallah and Brain Valentine. It’s just too, too perfect.
I TOTALLY gave you credit, though.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
As usual, for Sims, Valentine’s Day is an exercise in confusion, incest, and death. And cheap innuendo.
Uhoh, don’t look at Polite Dissent today then. You have convergent thought
Hilarious. Thanks!
Yeah, I just saw Dr. Scott’s up on Polite Dissent. As usual, his Legion ones make me look like a hack of the highest order.
I’m sorely tempted to print out that Gwen Stacy one and give it to everyone I know.
Bless your sick, black heart for these Sims. :D
Despite the tragedy, heehaw hilarious
For the Gwen Stacy one, you are now my hero.
You’re going to Hell for that, I’m pretty sure. You made Stan Lee cry!
Your Gwen Stacy valentine is much better than mine, though it is rather scary we ended up using the same scene…
Thanks for getting me hooked on Cromartie, Chris! X’s and O’s!
This is going to drive me crazy. Where was the original article on Destructo?
None of those valentines was actually a skeleton this year. Hrm….
