Reader's Digest "Best Jokes from A to Z"

I was hired to create Photo-Illustrations for a Reader's Digest feature on the "Best Jokes from A to Z". It's always a challenge and a lot of fun working with RD. All of the models & props were shot in one day in the studio and the rest of the elements were composited. I think I like Steven Wright's joke best:
"I intend to live forever... so far so good."
Superman in a bar with his "magic beer".
Why did the free range chicken cross the road?
Narcissist changing a light bulb while the world revolves around him.
Woman answering the iron instead of her phone.
