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.

This is so weird, but the amount of information in this one panel would be sufficient for 1 episode / entire series today:
Bonus: Questionable Ethics of the Luther Corp for experiments on children. Did this happen to others?
Foreshadowing on Episode 2: Unstoppable Child discovers its abilities, Series turns into a prison break from high security laboratory with Superman and Batman villains at various ages. (Basically "The new Mutants")
The part where the hatch opens needs a frame where one of the guards freaks out and fires a laser before others stop him. Then it would be clear how the fuck did they discover the laser-resistance.
It's even simpler than that... they were firing the laser at the hatch when it opened, and the laser beam hit the "baby" before they'd had a chance to turn it off.
