It’s Doll Man Monday!
By gum! A cash register. A sticky substance. Doll Man down on his knees. Is this what they call a “money shot”?!?

It’s a candy-ass superhero that has to resort to chewing gum to catch crooks. What’s next? Flypaper?
I think that’s what they call “a cash flow problem.”
Now the crook’s really got sticky fingers. Heh. Heh.
I still say Swing Sisson’s a gigolo. No wonder Dr. Wertham got worked up.
How did he manage to chew a gallon-and-a-half of gum? Imagine trying to produce that much goo at your normal human size, let alone if you’re the size of a lunchbox.
Not to mention — that gum is the stick kind, not the Bazooka Joe kind. Not sticky!
This comic book cover stretches my credulity.
Perhaps Doll Man didn’t chew the gum but mashed it up with his tiny feet, like an elf stomping grapes.
I like to do credulity-stretching exercises like studying Doll Man covers before turning on the evening news. Otherwise, there’s a risk of painful credulity tears, or worse.
Speaking of sticky situations, did anyone notice the size of the villain’s fly?!? Doll Man may be little, but there are some big honkin’ things in his universe!
