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.

A panel from Planet comics. The scene is titled "GALE CAN STAND NO MORE...". The character is depicted wearing a futuristic crown inside a clear helmet. The panel features a speech bubble with the text "I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS!"

Info not related to the panel:

Planet Comics # 12 | Published May 1941. With this issue, brunette Gale Allen got a dye job and spent the rest of her career as a blonde.

Gale Allen and her Girl Squadron! were from Planet Comics, from the publisher Fiction House. As a Venusian princess, she grew up to become the captain of the Universal Space Patrol. A skilled space pilot sporting a ray gun at her hip, Gale leads her Girl Squadron in the fight for galactic justice around the year 1990 (when her adventures first begin).

That sounds excellent, I'll have to give it a go ... I'm outside the US, so I'll try to track stuff down online ...

Thank you for such a thorough reply!

Thanks - I was thinking of the collected works because I'm lazy like that, but I'm not about to look a gift horse in the mouth!
