" In swipe file we present two
or more images, identified and dated,
which resemble each other to some
degree. They may be homages,
parodies, ironic appropriations,
bizarre coincidences, or outright
rip-offs. We leave it up to you,
the reader, to decide what kind
of swipe you are looking at.
Readers are encouraged to
send in their favorite swipes. "
ugh, work for me
Interesting pieces,
i liked the second and the fourth ones.
i like the top one the best; the smartass expression on that kids face just cracks me up...
...it was submitted to the magazine by the great comic artist Charles Burns.
