As Newsweek is merging with the Daily Beast, lots of other print magazines have decided they too will have to merger with an online site to survive. So I’m happy to announce that IMAO will be merging with Highlights for Children creating IMAHighlights (that’s what the board decided on). I think it will be a great fit. And here’s a preview of some of the new content you can expect:
What’s wrong with this picture?
That’s right! It’s not nuked. Good job. You should feel good about yourself.
Also, I’m already working on a comic where Goofus votes for Democrats and Gallant beats up hippies. Fun!


I was hoping IMAO would merge with Rail Fan Magazine. I want to be an engineer on the IMAO choo choo! Zoom zoom!
Story idea: The Timbertoes lose their federally protected status and are chased through the woods by chainsaw wielding loggers.
Will ‘Goofus and Galant’ get a daily update like ‘Day by Day’? I could get really attached. You do have a talent much like Chris Muir’s. Chris has been accused of drawing his characters naked and then hanging clothes from them and you draw your characters as skeletons and then add the clothing. (Bow means SarahK–Hat means FrankJ)
You could do those drawings with hard to find hidden objects. Look, let’s see if we can find Waldo, Obama’s brains, Reid’s ethics, Pelosi’s botox, those invivsible jobs, Barney’s morals, Keith’s honesty, Chrissy’s tingle, and Michael Moore’s diet hidden amonst the stimulus project signs. I new you could.
Highlights magazine, featuring the first Hidden Object Game evar. Whenever I’m in a doctor or dentist waiting room, if I see a Highlights mag I grab it. Then I tell the crying child to play the maze on the front of all the Time magazines with a fat Sharpie.
I paint, mainly watercolor. If you need disturbing pictures that will upset young minds I can probably come up with something… I would suggest you start with fun game suggestions like snipe hunts, wedgies, jumping off the teeter totter and watching the other guy bust his balls, working on a guys gears just right so his chain slips on his bike and he falls on his nads on the center bar…all good clean fun that we use to engage in when I was a youth! Of course now I’d be on ritalin…
I think that you missed your opportunity. You could have bought Newsweek, merged it with IMAO, and named the result Newsfrank, or Nuke the News.
Why would any child NOT want to nuke the moon? …unless of course he is in training to be gay.
I smell a rat. Is it a mere coincidence that the annual subscription price of Highlights for Children is almost exactly the same as a subscription for Newsweek? As no one reads either, how can we be certain they are not the same?
That means that IMAO will be required reading at the dentist’s office?
Woohoo, root canal here we come baby!
@Burma: As no one reads either, how can we be certain they are not the same?
Simple Highlights spells correctly and is readable.
Oh sure, tease me with the promise of hippie beatings, you know how much I love stories of hippies getting whupped. It better be a good, graphic comic. You better deliver, mister!
I’m shocked, shocked that Frank hasn’t done an article or random thought alluding to that holographic concert in Japan.
[It was on my list, but I didn’t get to it. -Ed.]
As they say on Reason Hit and Run “And Richie Havens sings Bob Dylan, warning us that “moon” and “doom” almost rhyme, and that there’s a reason for that!” Nuke The Moon
Can I submit a poem for IMAHilights?
Winter. Time to find your mittens,
so we can skate on the ice.
Don’t let Instapundit blend your kittens.
As he did your puppy, twice.
I pity the Dentist when mommy finds out what precious little Montana Sky has been reading! He will need to wipe the spittle off his dental coat before seeing the next patient! Of course, as a dentist and an avid reader of IMAO, I would expect him to appropriate the pain medications appropriately. If a child comes in named Montana Sky or Gaia Green, it’s always advisable to use minimal pain meds. A child like this needs to learn when mommy isn’t right there protecting them that the world can be a nasty place and where better than the dentist office!
I don’t mean I’m a dentist per the last paragraph. Good grief!
as to whats wrong with the picture ….NO CRACKERS
I hope that comic is real. Actually, I’d like to see more Frank The Artist entries–they’re funny.
