Caption: HOW CHOCOLATE BUNNIES BECAME HOLLOW. Count Chocula sits for a job interview in an office labeled EASTER CANDY FACTORY. The interviewer asks: “Have you ever worked on an assembly line before, Mr. Chocula?”
That’s two job interview jokes in a row.
Sarge Steel was an oddity:
He was NOT a Sergeant; his first name is Sarge. He was in fact a Captain when he served in the army. And the last name “Steel” has nothing to do with the fact that his left hand is a solid steel fist. That’s just a coincidence.
The stories are pretty good (especially for Charlton), and you can’t complain about art like this. It looks really modern, doesn’t it? I looked him up and DC took over the character in later years. At one point Sarge became the mental slave of Mr. Mind, the tiny supergenius extraterrestrial worm who fought Captain Marvel for so many years. That is a very intriguing crossover.
