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.

Who's that?
I think I learned about this guy on Reddit a few years ago.

He is a science/educational YouTuber.

He previously ran a channel called “Because Science” where he attempted to rationalise fictional phenomena using real world science.

I stopped watching his videos when he started his current channel for better autonomy.

Can I ask why you stopped? I used to watch him on Because Science as well, and when he got his own channel I was pretty skeptical, but I think he's done a great job with it so far.

It has been a few years, so I will do my best to recollect. Also, I appreciate the work Kyle Hill does and his decision to start a new channel for whatever reasons he deemed necessary. However, I did not like the videos from the new channel, and it could very well be that his style and content has changed over the years.

I remember making an honest attempt with his first few videos on the new channel. I remember not liking the new style of presentation: the setting of a spaceship with a sentient(?) computer program and their banter. It was uninteresting and unnecessary, and the attempts at humour felt flat.

The only reason I watched the videos till the end was for the subject matter. Everything else in his videos became a distraction, unlike his videos from the previous channel as well as his contemporaries where such elements added to the infotainment.

Eventually, I stopped clicking on his videos altogether.

Thanks for explaining!
