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.

d/dx is notation for "derivative of" and what follows is a 4-variable function that (I think) would graph to some kind of 4D shape. Though taking the derivative of that surface with respect to X should result in a 3D shape. I think the author knew just enough calculus to sorta get the gist of something that looks like it's describing 4D/3D stuff to anyone else who's taken high school or college calculus (e.g. me. I don't know much higher math)
