If John Kerry's campaign commercials were this awesome, he might've won. Maybe.

The Bad German

We got quite a few E-Mails about Friday's "New Pope" strip. Some points...

1.) Please do not take it as a commentary on the new Pope. We rarely attempt any sort of commentary in SORE THUMBS, and this is no exception. I don't know how Owen feels, but speaking as the writer of the strip in question, I have no real feelings for or against the new Pope (but I thought the last Pope was pretty awesome). I do not believe he is the second coming of Hitler. Fairbanks is imagining him as such because he is a delusional idiot. And he is not a delusional idiot because he is a conservative, he is a delusional idiot because he's nuts and he's not very smart.

2.) Many of our German-speaking readers were kind enough to point out some speechographical errors in the Hitler Pope's German talk. Thank you, German readers, but instead of taking responsibility for those errors I will say that Fairbanks' brain uses Babelfish to imagine German people talk. It's all part of the fun of visiting Fairbanks' mind. For non-Germans, here's what the Pope was saying: "The reign of terror of the liberals are over! I have murdered the man known as John Kerry and taken his head! I hold this head in my hands as I scream! God bless America, yo!"

SIN CITY's got box office mojo. I'm sure our parody put it over the top.
