Dunno. It goes way back to when Kyle was drawing. There’s been Grouch noses, Super Mario, pantomime horses, leprechauns, Mr. Sta-Puf, Avatar, pajamas… more than I can think of right now.
I think that the “Colonel Sanders” KFC is currently using in the franchise’s commercials is just plain downright creepy. The original was a much friendlier and nicer guy to watch on TV.

Not a gun toting Colonel but…Sanders was commissioned as a Kentucky Colonel in 1935 by Kentucky governor Ruby Laffoon. Wikipedia

I think it would have been far more interesting to use Colonel Sanders from “Spaceballs” in today’s panel.

Rita’s version of The Colonel could also be the Alfred, the butler on the old, er, I mean, classic TV series Batman.
