Out of Context Comics

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

Rules:

Comics must come from actual comic books. No AI or Photoshops.
Single panels are preferred.
Comics should be unintentionally funny. Spider-man cracking wise is not what this is about.
Don't be a dick.
I can't believe I've had to add this... NO RACISM.

source: "Chacha Chaudhury: Duplicate" (literally: Uncle Chaudhury: Duplicate. Chacha Chaudhury has been a famous comic character in india for 40-50 years or so).

context: some folks have just robbed a bank and are driving away. one of the bank's officers runs after them screaming for them to stop. her usage of the word "booty" is a translation artefact; i haven't read the original hindi version, but i'm guessing the line would have been closer to "stop them, they've looted the bank!".
