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.

More proof that Superman is kinda a dick.

How dare he just Supermansplain that to her in public like that, no superclass at all.

I'd call him out on "Super-count" even being a thing.

[–] FinalRemix 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He can do super math at one point, too.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 month ago (4 children)


It's so super, it's 10x normal math.

20 × 16 × 10 = 32000 is definitely in the supershenanigans domain

What fucking nerd knows the weight of a bean

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] FooBarrington 6 points 1 month ago

I bet he doesn't even know the weights of any other legumes. What a super-poser

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

He's holding a bean in his other hand. Presumably, he doubles as a scale.

[–] FlyingSquid 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

A nerd with a kitchen scale?

[–] FooBarrington 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hands up, who here would have been able to recall the weight of a bean from memory?

[–] FlyingSquid 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm not sure why he couldn't have immediately taken a bean off of a scale before that panel. I hope your memory isn't that poor.

Feel free to investigate the matter and find out. Until then, it is as possible that he did as it is that he didn't.

Come to think of it, since he's fictional, he did both. And neither. At the same time if you want.

No, thank you. I don't need to cover every possible base for a joke.

To get to the next jar of beans?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

It was a different time, people constantly needed to know how many small objects were inside of a larger object.

How exactly did Lois rise to the job of chief journalist at a national newspaper anyway?

[–] Rhynoplaz 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Right? He could just be making shit up and we just believe it because he's Superman!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

That's some super-shit

[–] paraphrand 38 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Wow, Superman is a shithead “well actually” reply guy.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Judging by the era implied by the art style, it comes from a time when mansplaining wasn't just accepted, it was expected.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago

You let a million things go every day, Supe... why couldn't this be one of them?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This brought back early internet memories of superdickery

[–] FlyingSquid 6 points 1 month ago

I miss that site so much.

[–] dtrain 18 points 1 month ago

I want this scene in the next Superman movie

[–] But_my_mom_says_im_cool 15 points 1 month ago

Early super man had literally every power, including super math and super sewing. They had to cut out all that shit cause Superman was never in danger and had no weaknesses, although in these days, superhero comics were still being written as if they were detective pulp novels, so super man wasn’t flying around having epic battles with doomsday or metallo

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

I'll say it again, you're a super idiot, Lois.
