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.

Hahahaha The Watchmen! One of my favorite graphic novels.

Ok, I think I'm gonna need some context for this one, I'm actually pretty intrigued

Edit: thanks for the context! It all makes sense now. I've seen the movie a couple times in the past, just never read the graphic novel.

Here's the scene in the movie adaptation with Billy Crudup playing the guy in the comic here. I 100% recommend reading the Watchmen graphic novel (the only graphic novel on Time's Top 100 Novels of All Time list), but definitely worth seeing this part in motion.

As an aside, the one thing the movie did better than the book was Ozymandias' plan and execution.

Ha! That's just Barry. Classic Barry.

That single panel gives me goosebumps!
It's like a 1 sentence sci-fi horror story.

(also, why is that one dude on his hands and knees?)

He's collapsing and turning away in horror.

This makes me feel inspired to share random quotes that never happened

Bro forgot to put on his skin after leaving the house

As you do

Well this is the only out of context comic panel I actually know, thus far.

It is also the first one I uploaded,so there is a 100% correlation :)

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I actually just genuinely know this one. It's in the movie!

How does one scream without lungs?

[–] Whelks_chance@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I have no lungs but I must scream
