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.

Dude is one asymmetric pair of glasses from Spider Jerusalem

Thank you for this. I saw a picture of Spider Jerusalem on a counter culture flyer over a decade ago and couldn't find the source (I wanted those sweet glasses). When I read Invisibles I assumed I found it and it must've been Mob from some promo or alt art.

It was definitely Spider Jerusalem, I found the glasses, and now I get to read Transmetropolitan.

big time fucking up peoples' guts

At first I thought this was a sex thing, then I started reading and thought it would be a violence thing. Then I kept reading, and I became enlightened.

I was thinking the same thing

Even closer than that to being King Mob from The Invisibles.

Edit: based on what other people have posted, it is King Mob. I'll see myself out.
