Your lines tell me how you draw Keith
I can feel it in your DC
I know you like what fool’s see
Hold me, this page is all that you need
Wrap your Bug around me
You're so excited, I can feel the
Inks by Oksner, butt’s weary
Sit your ass down, Fourth wall broke down
Where no one's ever drawn before
And if you want fall, if you want fall
More, more

Then jump on the art
Buggin’ and feel ink brush
Bug if you want the delicious 
Unemployment

Jump, jump Ambush Bug
Jump, I know the art can make you happy
Jump in, you know Keith charms
Can fun it up
Bug, if you want that delicious
Unemployment
Jump, jump for your Bug

This is the Pointer Sisters/Ambush Bug mashup that the world didn't know it needed but is a better place now that the song is here.

Well, THAT took a dark (and funny) turn at the end, haha!  Great page!

That's a helluva page, dood.

And from one of my favorite comics/characters of the 80s.

I'ma' go put on my Ambush Bug tee shirt right now.

Sadly, I'm a fool.....😭

But to be fair, Marvel and DC are sad and pathetic publishers who after a quarter of a century, still can't figure out why the comic book publishing business is constantly struggling to keep its head above water. Every time someone posts are from a book I want to read and I go see if I can buy it, it's either long out of print or has never been collected...😡

This page, by the way, with its self contained gag, is awesome!

It's a crime that there's no Ambush Bug collection in print.  There was a black and white "Showcase" collection a number of years back, but I think they discontinued the entire line.  I would love an omnibus hardcover with all of the Giffen work including the never printed (and quite mysterious) Year None issue 6 from 2008.  The "Nothing Special" from 1992 is one of my favorite single issues of anything ever.  We'll get these stories into your hands one way or the other.

There you go, Michael!!  A terrific Ambush Bug "self-contained gag" page - wow!!  I always loved the Bug, and even as a pretty staunch "Marvel guy" I'd cross the street (as it were) whenever possible for good ol' Irwin.  Love the charm, wit, and style here (love the zoomed-in panel 5, especially) and honestly laughed out loud when I got to the last panel.  Love it!  Congrats, Michael!  Viva la CALive!!

A classic surreal gag brilliantly revisited! AB is no artist, but he sure draws waaay better than me 😹

Pure Giffen nonsense

I'm A FOOL!  With that said, you gotta love Kieth Giffen, love the layout and the humor.

He forgot to draw some 2x4s to strengthen his wall.
