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 am insanely curious as to the context here. Was he a time traveller? Did he grow the beard to hide some identifying mark? Is he a member of a cult whose perfectly manicured beards are the membership card?

Comics be crazy. Could be any of these and 100 more crazier things.

I don't think this was one of the ones I found myself, but based on the look, I'm guessing it has something to do with being a communist spy.

I thought the same thing. Facial hair used to be a counter culture things back in the 50s. Like, going outside without a hat was rebellious.
