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.

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.

Man that is fucking wild, the enshitification. Fucking November 14th is still not even over and it's already a best-selling graphic novel and feature film.

You're the real superhero.

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

That's a bold take that I don't see many people take, who read the comics lol. May I ask why you view that?
