The CartoonStock Caption Contest #157

The rules have changed once again for the CartoonStock Caption Contest #157. It still costs $5 to enter three captions. Cash prizes are now $500 for first place and $100 each for five runners up. The drawing is by Jon Adams.

"Would it kill them to write us into the Marvel Universe?"
"Apparently no one is too big to fail."
"We would have a complementary sushi bar in Tokyo."



These captions were too small-minded:
"Exactly. It's the pictures that got small."
"Damn Marvel Comics."
"How did the Marshmallow Man get in here?"



August 30, 2022 Update:  Lawrence Wood, now the eight-time winner of The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest, had a lot to say about my second entry, but it still did not make it into the top six:
