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.

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

Being telepathic is Un-American!

I want this scene in the next Superman movie

This brought back early internet memories of superdickery

[–] FlyingSquid 4 points 12 hours ago

I miss that site so much.

More proof that Superman is kinda a dick.

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 hours ago

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

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

[–] FinalRemix 16 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

He can do super math at one point, too.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 16 hours ago (4 children)


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

He also flies sometimes.

What fucking nerd knows the weight of a bean

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

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

[–] FlyingSquid 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

A nerd with a kitchen scale?

[–] FooBarrington 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] FlyingSquid 1 points 4 hours 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.

[–] FooBarrington 1 points 2 hours ago

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 hours ago (1 children)
[–] FooBarrington 4 points 5 hours ago

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

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 hours ago

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

[–] FlyingSquid 3 points 12 hours ago

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

[–] Rhynoplaz 17 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 19 hours ago

That's some super-shit

[–] [email protected] 24 points 22 hours ago

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

[–] [email protected] 11 points 21 hours ago

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