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.

$0.10 for the pitcher itself, and its contents? That's $0.84 today. Even for 1970, that's a good deal!

For a would-be world conqueror, Kang has this weird hangup about avoiding debt of any kind. (it goes back to his childhood / family life, yadda yadda)

The real reason he ran off with the pitcher is because his suit didn't have any pockets, and he's covering up by using standard bravado, there. Later, he'll feel terribly guilty about the whole thing, and make it his mission to find the girl and repay her before conquering the world... but we haven't gotten there, yet.

A dime in 1983... but the entire yearly economic output of several planets in Kang's time.
