I am now in full Convention Preparation Mode this week, for the Philly Comic Con this weekend! So, how about a “Put Words in Their Mouths” caption contest! Going pretty simple this time, only one panel, really. What exactly caused this scene?
Read my original HERE. Think you could do better? Re-write it your own way!
The Prize?
Now here’s the big surprise…. in honor of the “Official Release” of Volume 2 at the Con this weekend, the winner gets a FREE SIGNED…….
That’s right! All you gotta do is post an entry (or 3), and if I pick yours as the funniest & most fitting to Z&F’s world…. I will ship you a signed copy of the new book! That’s a $20 value!
Okay, now some Rules:
1. Remember this is a kid-friendly site, okay?
2. You can post up to 3 entries. Separate comments, please. Only way to enter is via the comments.
3. My balloons are just suggestions for the script. The number of balloons and what character is speaks is up to you. Make sure you notate which character is saying what. I’ll take care of laying it out.
4. The previous winner is invited to play, but is ultimately ineligible this round (sorry!)
*the previous winner is Chris Ciancanelli– Feel free to play Chris, but I can’t select yours!
Due date is this Thursday, by 8pm EST. The winner will be announced on Friday! Now, get to it guys!
“Here doggie, come here!”
“He sure is out of control”
“Somebody, stop this crazy thing!”
Oh, Goody. Another caption contest! Here’s my first entry:
Fred: This dog has expanded from burying bones.
Child ( don’t know name ): It buried some of mine and part of my bat!
Zorphbert: Don’t let it bury me! I’m not dead yet.
Thanks for the entry Rainey! btw- the kid is simply “Weird Kid”, he has no name. well, he DOES I’m sure, but it’s not mentioned in the comic. :0)
Fred: Looks like the dog wants to be on your team Zorphbert.
Weird Kid: Did anyone get the license of that truck?
Zorphbert: We really need to make more friends.
Fred: Zorphie, play dead!
Weird Kid: That only works on bears not hurricanes
Zorphbert: If you don’t get this beast off of me I won’t be PLAYING dead!
Fred: “Heel!”
Weird Kid: “Make him stop!”
Zorphbert: “Don’t make me buried alive!”
Fred: Safe or Out?
Weird Kid: Safe.
Zorphbert: You call this safe?
Fred: I think she wants something, Zorphie!
Weird Kid: Sometimes you walk the dog, sometimes the dog walks you.
Zorphbert: Arrgh! Fleabag! You got dirt in my suit!
I came up with yet another entry. I’ll have to give careful thought to my third entry.
Fred: Is that one of our beings?
Weird Kid: Great disguise if it is.
Zorphbert: Doubtful, its breath smells like garbage and toilet bowl cleaner!
Ta-da! My third and final entry.
Fred: A real dog. I wonder what breed it is.
Weird Kid: I have a book on that sort of thing. I’ll just need a track.
Zorphbert: There are plenty of them on my back!
P.S. I didn’t notice until after I posted my first entry that you removed the title of the book as well as the spoken words. After I noticed this, I got the hint. Here’s what the book titles should be for my entries.
Entry #1: The Serpent and the Rainbow. (This is to point out the movie I’m referencing with Zorphbert’s line. This is one of my favorite zombie movies but it may or may not actually exist in book form.)
Entry #2: Aliens Among Us.
Entry #3: Identifying Animal Pawprints.
Here’s a coin in the fountain.
F: Man Overboard!
WK: It’s only dirt, Fred.
Z: Shiver me timbers!
The book title should be “How to Serve Man” Always. No matter what entry wins. The Trash Heap has spoken!
“& most fitting…” <— instant failure. *shakes fist at sky* Damn you, ampersand!
F: You just got served, son!
WK: Daaaaaa-yum!
Z: I will kill you both in your sleep.
Here’s my 3rd. of my 3 entry limit:
F: “Did you find any treasure yet?”
WK: “I hope he does”
Z: “Hey, not inside me, puh-leeze!”
Thanks for the great entries so far guys! Especially those of you who were crafty enough to come up with THREE! wow ;0)
This is about as close as I’ll get to thematic applicability. I’m only entering for entertainment value, though; if you’re silly enough to consider any of my entries, don’t.
F: I don’t think dogs are allowed on the field!
WK: But you-
Z: Sproing! Help!
OK, this is all I can come up with.
Fred: I think he wants to go for a walk.
Weird Kid: I think he wants to go for a walk.
Zorphbert: Did you want to go for a walk?
Fred: Wait! You gotta spell it out for him!
Weird Kid: W-A-L
Zorph: I get it! Thanks for the heads up!
Aw I might as well give it a crack. Here’s what I got Dawn:
(Fred)- Zorphie! I told you it was a bad idea to stuff your suit with jerky bits!
(WK)- What the heck just happened???
(Zorphbert)- But the food at the stadium is just so EXPENSIVE!
I don’t have anything better but my vote goes to zero wolf.
Fred: Don’t look it him in the eyes! Puppy dog eyes are like kryptonite!
Weird Kid: Looks like somebody wants to go for a walk pretty bad.
Zorphbert: If he can get his own leash why can’t he walk himself?! Get off me flea bag!
Fred: SAFE!!!
Weird Kid: Wow! I didn’t even see the pitch.
Zorphbert: SAFE?! Are you BLIND?! He didn’t even come from the right direction!
Fred: Just act natural! It’s how they say hello.
Weird Kid: It looks like someone made a new friend.
Zorphbert: Why does his breath smell like toilet?!
