YEEEEEEEE-HAWWWWWWWW!!!

I'm trying to come up with a single panel scene for Bub and Johnny Go, and really, I'm just stuck on an image of a high-speed chase with a couple dozen Elvis bikers after Johnny, who's riding Slim-Pickens-style atop a giant Bob's Big Boy strapped to the car (presumably being driven by Bub).

Now, I hated to spoil that surprise (should I ever actually sit down and draw it), but frankly, I keep wondering if there's something better I could use than a Bob's Big Boy. I mean, after all, it's rather played out, isn't it? With AUSTIN POWERS, if nothing else.

Still, I can't quite imagine a large object that so captures the ironic, fun, corny post-apocalyptic Americana tone of BUB AND JOHNNY GO like a giant damaged fiberglass Bob's Big Boy.

Any suggestions? Or should I just go with it.

(And for the record, no, I don't know why Johnny has it or why they're after him. Do I really need a reason?)

Oh, my friend, you can do better than that.

See, I knew I should have gone to you for this.

Already on the master list, I'm seeing several possibilities. But the Venus one? A little too "modern art sculpture garden" for a Johnny Go story, wouldn't you say?

Not if they are stealing it to curry favor with Future Sinatra, no. I imagine he'd be in for that sort of thing (in the future).

Ha! I like where you're going with this. But would Future!Sinatra be so interested in it? Or rather, why should Johnny think he would? "What the hell is this damn thing? She's got cube pubes!"

Dude, it's a giant leggy blonde dame on her knees. What else is Future Sinatra going to decorate his Nuevo Jersey palace with?

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

You make a compelling argument.

Mulling shall commence.

I know where they have one of those, actually.
It's probably still there, along with a British phone box (not THAT one; the windowed one.)

Whereabouts?
