Deranged Conan impersonation in 'Gasoline Alley'

[Joseph Nebus]

On the wildly improbable chance that you don't read the comic
strip 'Gasoline Alley', the story just now lurching into motion is
getting going with an appearance of the ``Conan O'Barbarian'' show:

And, ah, wow.

Possibly useful backstory: musician Earl Lee Byrd was introduced
a storyline back as an itinerant Music musician, who had a brief yet
hilariously unsuccessful relationship with the woman watching TV in the
third panel. It fell apart because, strangely, after their one actual
date she wasn't willing to marry him, and he wandered off.

Clearly not the real thing, with the guest being on the right!

Or maybe what's-her-name has her TV stuck in "horizontal mirror" mode.

Or maybe they're borrowing a page from classic (NBC) Letterman and doing a
"mirror image" show.
