Inventing The Funnycar

I had planned to run the first full length Funnyman adventure, featuring teen fans mobbing celebrities to steal from them. A fair tale, perhaps a bit ahead of the cultural curve. But the second issue featured this oddball story that shoved its way up to the front of the queue, and i'm disinclined to argue with it. Somewhere between the Black Beauty and Silver lies Jet Jallopy, the Funnycar!

I hear a lot of talk these days about smart cars.
They've got a long way to go to catch up to Jet Jallopy!

tale by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster for Funnyman #2 (1948)

A Sixpack Of Funny

Still having trouble focusing outward, so we're breaking the post into parts to get it going.
Just a batch of covers this time - all six issues of Funnyman - with the awaited reveal on our creators - Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, creators of Superman!  (And The Spectre, of course) *

Alien protector, supernatural avenger, bored clown.
You can't accuse the boys from Cleveland of simply trying to retread their previous ideas.

*(Thanks to our favorite Mindbender for unbending my recollection on The Spectre. Only Jerry Siegel was involved in that creation, not Joe Shuster)
