All right comics trivia fans.
Who gave what character this line in what comic?
"For sheer disgust, the only thing worse than the smell of burning pickle
is the concept itself"
Please post replys.

That's SIMPLE: My all time favorite comic book character:
Howard the Duck
Context is in the issue 'Star Wauugh' (number unknown but in the 20s).
Howard has just been attacked by a magically enlarged and enraged kosher dill
and the Man-Thing has intervened. And as we all know "Whoever knows fear
at the Man-Thing's touch WILL BURN!!" (or whatever cliche Claremont used)
This leads to the trivia quote. It has always been one of my favorites.
Yeah Gerber, Boo Marvel establishment donkey bottom wipers!
