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.

Some weren't veiled at all.

That's a little different than what I was thinking.

Most Tijuana bibles were obscene parodies of popular newspaper comic strips at the time, ... Others made use of characters based on popular movie and sports stars of the day ...

That's more along the lines of Rule 34, or the early Simpsons "porn" that got sent by fax machine.

I was thinking of wholly original "mainstream" comics that you could just go buy at a drugstore or newsstand.
