Wrong in So Many Ways

by Wayno & Piraro

Bizarro is brought to you today by Literal Bakers.

One of my favorite types of games as a kid were those “find x things wrong with this picture.” Playing that game in Highlights magazine was the only good thing about going to the doctor or dentist. (My parents were too poor to get me a subscription to the magazine, plus, we had no permanent mailing address in the strip mining pit in which we lived.)

My affinity for that game is what prompted me to create the cartoons below, in fact. (Click on the images for a larger view.)

The other game in Highlights that I loved was their version of “find these objects hidden in this picture.” It was this game that first prompted me to start hiding the alien, firecracker, pie, etc. icons in my cartoons.

On a different note, does the crotch of this baseball pitcher make you uneasy? It does me.
