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.

The launcher itself doesn't propel them. Rockets just need a guide to get started off in the right direction.

This is a high powered miniature rocket launcher, they differ from your average rocket launcher in that they resemble canons. /s
