Toys get disgruntled too!
Drawn/published in Starlog magazine sometime in the early 2000s (I think).

Little known made-up fact-less truth: Roland Emmerich — the guy who directed almost-extinction-level event movies like Independence Day (1996), The Day After Tomorrow (2004), and city-levelling films like Godzilla (1998) — originally wanted to be a cartoonist.
Circa 1990-ish, Roland fedExxed a bunch of sci-fi cartoon ideas to Starlog Magazine. In New York.
6-to-8 weeks later, Roland’s cartoonist dreams were crushed after learning the Starlog editor (in New York!) rejected ALL his cartoon submissions.
Since then, let us assume Roland has a maddenning obsession to see New York burnt to the ground as we continually witness superimposed movie extras in Times Square paying the price for his vengeance.
This never-before-seen toon is based on a patently stupid gag idea, hidden in a drawer since 2004 (after respectfully rejected by Starlog’s almighty editor [possible reasons: it wasn’t funny; too close to 9/11; it wasn’t funny… take your pick]). Thankfully, I’m not the vengeful type… I just mope and eat compulsively.

Your only option is scramble out of your hidey-hole, raise your bunny fist in the air and scream out loud:
“THAT’S SOOOO DUMB!!”
