Out of Context Comics

Comic panels taken out of comics so we can make fun of them!! We love the golden age stuff!

Rules:

  1. Comics must come from actual comic books. No AI or Photoshops.

  2. Single panels are preferred.

  3. Comics should be unintentionally funny. Spider-man cracking wise is not what this is about.

  4. Don't be a dick.

  5. I can't believe I've had to add this... NO RACISM.

I'm also worried about the fact that these people don't seem to know the difference between an articulate child who appears to be around four years old and a baby.

Maybe that's why they shot him with a laser in the first place. They think that's how you feed a baby.
