Clarity

by Wayno & Piraro

Bizarro is brought to you today by Mustache Overkill.

So I’ve been including a mustache in most all of my cartoons in November, as part of that Movember movement thing. Can you find the hidden mustache in this image? Here’s a hint: it’s under the doctor’s nose.

If I were an optometrist or ophthalmologist (what’s with the extra letters in that word, for chaos’ sake?) I’d have a traditional eye chart printed up in this typeface, just to screw with patients. See how that works? I’d be the “funny doctor.” But I wouldn’t stop there, I’d go ahead and fit them with glasses that make the poster clear again, then send them off to buy glasses as thick as butcher block table. Oh, the laughs we’d have.

REBIZARROS: Of the many eye doctor jokes I’ve done over the past 79 years of my career, this one is one of my real faves.  I know that a lot of cartoons have been done over the years about why Picasso painted as he did, but I still like it. So there.
