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.

Context is Batman (1940) #89, page 27

Transcript:

Now you march right back in here and put on your rubbers! Tsk-tsk! Such a cloudy-looking night! I won't have you coming home in the rain!

Rubbers? Batman and Robin must put on rubbers?

Sometimes I think these are anachronistic, and sometimes I think the authors know precisely what they were doing.

This one feels on purpose lol.

I... don't think Robin can get pregnant.

Even if not, disease is a thing. Protect yourself before you wreck yourself.

I saw an ad for a preemptive HIV pill, and the actor was saying, "I could ask him about his status, but I don't want to make things awkward" and I want to find this nonexistent person and beat them half to death.

So goddamned irresponsible!!!
