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.

OP, are you sure that date is correct? Batman first appeared in 1939.

Yeah. I'm borrowing the format from what I've seen online, things are named "Series (year started)", because there can be multiple series with the same name. So that's the series "Detective Comics (1937)", issue #406, which was published in 1970. I'd link to it but that's against the LW TOS.

Oh, that makes sense! Appreciate the clarification, and that system seems pretty sensible.
