Mr. T Pities the Fools Who Denigrate Loving Same-Sex Relationships!

During the height of his popularity in the mid-'80s, Mr. T was a merchandising machine. There were the B.A. Baracus action figures, the Saturday morning cartoon show, and the coloring books.
An S.F. expatriate (who now lives in Michigan) discovered that one of those old Mr. T coloring books about young gymnasts had some serious homoerotic overtones. So he changed the captions to make the homoeroticism more explict (he insists he didn't change the drawings).
My fave panel is the one of Mr. T breaking down a door and yelling at one of the gymnasts, "Get out of that closet, fool!" The one where Mr. T gets caught spying on two of the lovebirds is pretty priceless, too. -- Will Harper
