Comic panels taken out of comics so we can make fun of them!! We love the golden age stuff!
Rules:
-
Comics must come from actual comic books. No AI or Photoshops.
-
Single panels are preferred.
-
Comics should be unintentionally funny. Spider-man cracking wise is not what this is about.
-
Don't be a dick.
-
I can't believe I've had to add this... NO RACISM.

"Don't worry, they'll be safely disposed-of!"
We had an eccentric neighbor when I was growing up and she had a pretty damn big bomb shell that looked like one of those as a garden decoration. I'd say it was 5-6 feet high, although the last time I saw it, I was a teenager, so it might have been smaller than I remember. Big enough for it to clearly have once been something designed to be dropped out of a plane and explode.
And she was kind of a hippie lady (I grew up in a place where a lot of hippies settled and never stopped being hippies), so I think maybe it was meant to be an anti-war statement?
Oh wow, kind of a "swords into plowshares kind of thing" only a bit more terrifying!
