[QUOTE="thedungeondelver, post: 3532655, member: 34865"] [font=century gothic] Anyone here remeber [b]EPIC MAGAZINE[/b], published by Marvel in the mid 70's to late 80's? It was their answer to [b]HEAVY METAL[/B]. Anyway, there was a great one-shot strip that showed a robot floating in space. He's talking about the fact that he's an entertainment-bot with millions of jokes and songs preloaded in to him, that he has superconductive electromagnetic tap shoes so he can entertain in zero gravity and so forth - but he laments that despite all of this knowledge, skill and processing power he can't [i]create[/i]. Until "just last night". He managed to create his [i]own[/i] joke, and he hit the captain of the ship he was assigned to in the face with a yeasty cream pie, all of his own accord. The captain then threw him out of an airlock. He drifts further backwards for a couple of panels in silence, and then the last one shows him as a mere speck floating in the blackness. At the final panel he says "Hell...[i]I[/i] thought it was funny." [/font] [/QUOTE]
