I've always found clowns to be creepy

... and Ronald McDonald is no exception. I found this comic in the stacks at the Mechanicsburg Comix Connection:

(RONALD MCDONALD #2, Charlton Comics, January 1971)

Notice how "off-model" Ronald is... back then they didn't control images as tightly as they do now... it's all about the copyright. This picture on the back cover is more to spec:


But it's still creepy looking. And the only thing I've learned over the years about McDonalds is that if you eat their food, you will develop a clown-like physique.

Oh, and the "Surprise that awaits you in the middle of this book"? It must have been a poster, but it's gone. Somebody probably ate it. But in a way, THAT'S a surprise, right?

This comic is available at Comix Connection for the SUPERSIZED PRICE of only $15.00!
