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.

The date after the series title indicates when the series started, not the publication date of the actual panel. It's there to clarify that it's in the 300th issue of the original run, not the current one, or any of the ones that came between.

Exactly, thanks for explaining. The year mentioned is the publishing date of the first issue for the series
