Brains and Eggs: The Gaslight Zone Funnies

Here’s one for my colleagues who haven’t thought of their 9/11 cartoon yet. Draw a bald eagle with a tear drop coming out of one of his eyes, make sure it doesn’t look like a money shot, and give him a thought balloon containing the World Trade Center. You’re done and you’ll get a gazillion reprints, just so long as that tear doesn’t look too jizzy.
