Summary With The Far Side, Gary Larson regularly took readers for a ride – whether by automobile, train, or – as collected on this list – airplanes. Planes often reached equal heights of hilarity and calamity when they appeared in Far Side comics, as pilots and passengers alike turned routine air travel into anything but.

The Far Side could be hilarious , but as often as it was intended to make readers laugh, it was designed to leave them scratching their heads. The "why" of the punchline – as in, "why would that switch be there?" – is the entire crux of the joke in this Far Side cartoon. As an artist, Gary Larson was primarily interested in getting an immediate reaction out of his readers; whether he achieved that through dark comedy, or peak absurdity, the end result of pushing the readers' buttons was always the chief goal of The Far Side.
$71 At Amazon 7 The Far Side Offered Readers A Bird's-Eye View Of Airplane Pilots In Action First Published: September 4, 1991 Many of The Far Side's most memorable airplane panels took place in the front of the plane – specifically, the cockpit, where readers frequently found pilots who inspired less than total confidence in their ability to get the giant metal contraption from Point A to Point B.
5 One Of Gary Larson's Most Groan-Inducing Jokes First Published: January 7, 1991 If there is any Far Side punchline that can be found guilty of being a "dad joke," it is this one. Depicting an upward-perspective of the nose of a plane as it plummets out of the sky, billowing smoke in its wake, the pilot urgently shouts the flight's dire conditions into the radio.
Lacking a caption, this Far Side's punchline is a bit subtle. In the smaller panel in the upper-lefthand corner of the frame, a man waiting on a runway to flag the plane in for its landing looks down at the ground in dismay, where a bolt has apparently fallen out of the air – causing the plane to come apart at the middle.
