Forgive me as I relive the Mets sweep of the Pirates by completely destroying the comic book genre:

Special thanks to the animators at Be Funky.

G-Fafif said...: Best. Comix. Ever.

At least since Jughead asked Archie to loan him two bits for a burger.; 9:14 AM
Unser said...: Wow. That was impressive. Have you recently experienced an increase in your operating budget?; 10:33 AM
kjs said...: Funnier and better done than the OF and dimensions and sightlines at Debits Field...; 12:21 PM
Joe D. said...: Outstanding, classic and genius all rolled into one!; 12:54 PM
Metstradamus said...: +1 to anyone who can figure out who the Pirate is to the right of the parrot.; 1:12 PM

A thin Dave Parker???; 2:23 PM
Metstradamus said...: Thin Dave Parker?

Sorry. Try again.; 2:29 PM
Unser said...: Mike Easler, the original Met killer?; 3:06 PM
Metstradamus said...: Show me Mike Easler!

Two strikes.; 3:09 PM
Keyser said...: It looks to me most like Bill Madlock, but he was a right handed hitter and your picture shows someone in a left-handed hitters pose. The others I thought of were Rennie Stennett and Willie Stargell, but it doesnt look like either of them (and rennie was also right handed) Doesnt look like Manny Sanguien either.; 5:10 PM
Anonymous said...: Jeez.. My first guess was Dave Parker...

Omar Moreno? Frank Tavares?

It couldn't be Bobby Bonilla, could it?; 5:58 PM
Connor said...: Rennie Stennett?; 6:01 PM
Metstradamus said...: Keyser, incorrect on all counts. It does look like Madlock ... I'm surprised that wasn't the first guess.

This is a tough one. I can't blame you guys for not getting it. I wouldn't even expect a Pirate fan to figure it out. I will say that if you know your Mets history, the name will ring a bell with you.; 7:15 PM
850 said...: Willie Montanez. Only the mailman walks.; 8:33 PM
Metstradamus said...: 850, you now must call yourself 851. Because you get a +1. Good job.

And here's your proof:

Schneck said...: Excellent job!! Especially the lower left hand corner of the front cover.; 8:41 PM
Metstradamus said...: Schneck, I needed an ingenue. And Anna Benson threatened to sue ;); 9:01 PM
I.M. Forme said...: this looks expensive. how'd you do it? are you sponsored by pepsi, geico, and that new sponge thing?; 2:30 AM
Metstradamus said...: I.M., Expensive? Not in the least. Lotta work? Yes.; 2:50 AM
