If you see this, post a comics cover you love.
Conan the Barbarian 79 (October 1979). Penciled by John Buscema, inked by Ernie Chan, lettered by Irv Watanabe. A narrative panel says "The Eye of Set! Is it truly but a jewel - or will it doom a lost city?" Conan is in the foreground in a semi-crouched position, holding a raised axe and glaring intently directly in the reader's direction. Above and behind him, a large eerie red eye looks out from a blood red sky. Conan is saying "Back! Dogs of Stygia! I guard the mystic Eye with my blade and my life!"

Obligatory pic for today. But if you want to watch a Star Trek episode that actually mentions Thanksgiving, you'll have to go back to "Charlie X" from the original series instead.
A scene from the Star Trek The Next Generation episode "Sins of the Father." Hosting a visiting Klingon officer aboard the Enterprise, the crew offers him an elaborate traditional Earth style holiday dinner. Kurn (the Klingon) reluctantly agrees to "try some of your burned, replicated bird meat."

Writer Don C. Cameron sneaks a little Gilbert & Sullivan into the dialogue in Batman 14 (January 1943). Art by Jerry Robinson.
As Robin charges a group of criminals, one of them aims a gun at him and exclaims "I never miss!" The gunman who bragged that he never misses proceeds to miss, and Robin punches him while asking "What, never?" to which the falling criminal weakly responds "Well... hardly ever." The dialogue is reminiscent of lyrics from "The Captain of the Pinafore."
