The depiction of the politician as a clown looks appropriate. Instead of a pie throwing why not unmasking the clown into something else like a crocodile who is behind the suit.
Everyone is arguing about the barrel size of the gun. Clearly the sniper clown in the rafters was framed by the pie-wielding, FBI clown on the grassy knoll.
I can't believe people are bothered by the pie gun physics. THAT'S THE JOKE. You see the normal-looking gun and expect a bullet. Instead, it's a whole big pie. If the gun actually looked like it could fire a pie, the comic would not be funny at all.
My take on it? Clown in the middle panel is sad-looking and revenge-filled. As you can see from the fact the sniper rifle crosshair is directly over his upper left thorax (I won't say heart otherwise I'll get flamed because the heart is further down and more central...). However the pie comes directly from the left when it is implied that the sniper is in front. If Presidential candidate Bongo has turned, this is not shown in the last panel. Ergo, the pie has in fact saved Bongos' life... As his sideways movement upon impact would have moved him enough for a bullet shot not to be fatal. Shoulder or arm wound maybe...
Either way I chuckled when I saw this. I almost always do. Some comics I enjoy more than others but to each their own.
What happen was that the pie was super condensed to the size and shape of a sniper bullet. When the pie was fired the capsule surrounding it broke apart and so the pie expanded to its original size.
I like the set up and the joke, your usual impressive quality, but I guess I'm a bit leery of Presidential Assassination jokes at this point. I'm probably just too paranoid. Keep up the good work!
I understand where you're coming from all too well. Actually, a pretty considerable amount of thought went into other possible pie sniper scenarios. Nothing seemed as funny as the presidential setup, though, so the effort was made to avoid visual cues that would too closely link the comic to current political events.
The title really states what is going on. It looks like the clown decided to go from his former silliness to a serious career in politics, but gets a pie in the face, probably ruining his political career by making it look like he willingly participated in a pie gag. Character assasination complete.
Also, this really plays to the nature of the pie gag. If you watch the three stooges, the target of the pie is often aristocratic, important, or otherwise inflated. Look up stooges pie fight on youtube.One senator (important), several aristocratic types, and one guy with a giant ego. Krusty the Clown said it best "The pie gag's only funny when the saps got dignity" The only thing missing is a setup line like "Wait, don't throw that pie..." *holds out hand* "Now let me have it!"
By the way, was this at all inspired by the assasination scene in death to smoochy? The sniper and the lighting give that impression.
I have a mild suspicion that this person is trying to be funny by being brutally deadpan sardonic. Note how he explains widely familiar concepts like the pie gag at great length. Note also the suggestion of adding a tired wordplay. The last paragraph kind of ruins the effect, though. Usually you only want to feign ignorance in cases where the answer is obvious, and here it is not because it could be an homage to a number of things. Of course this last part could be intended to mask the nastiness of the deconstruction (totally unnecessary) or divert the attention of anyone trying to counter-analyze.
Nice. The pie gag itself was used in the very spirit of the origin of the pie-gag. (Where the routine seemed to go in one direction, often intellectual in nature, but resorts instead to a sight-gag.) If Benny Hill were still alive, he'd have gotten a chuckle out of this comic.
