Slush Editor: Um, let's see. There is one thing, depending on how desperate you are.

Let's see....

It's called “Super Young Vaguely-Attractive Porcine Space Bureaucrats Oink Zeggpold and Kristy Shipp”.

Assistant: That's not going to fit on the cover, Chief.

Oink: I should explain that in those days, all comics were required to list the titles of all features on the cover.

Big anthologies like Bureaucracy Jump had fairly crowded covers.

Editor: We'll have to change the title. What's in it?

Slush Editor: Er, well, there are these Space Bureaucrats...

Yeah, pigs...

Um..., forms and stuff...

Other Pig: Hey, Suzy, do you need anything from the stores? Lisa's going out now...

Slush Editor: Oh, yeah, a couple of toasters...

Sorry, boss, ah...

Editor: Pigs and Toasters? that will just fit, thanks.

Slush Editor: Ah, boss. That was just...

Editor: Thanks, Suzy! Send the pages to production A.S.A.P.!

Slush Editor: Oh, well, probably no one will notice...

Editor: I'll do the cover, if you can get together the the text pages on the Furutanis' award.

Say, what is the award, anyway?

Assistant: It's the Hughes Award for Improving Interspecies Relations!

The censors will love that, won't they?

Oink: “So there you have it: the true story...” well, a story, anyway,... “... of how Pigs and Toasters got its name.”

See you next time, when we'll be back to Rotating Eggplant Family Comics!

But there will probably be more Hollistons™ Cream of Papaya Comics one of these days!
