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.

Is it ridiculous? Yes.

But I do think it’s a fun workaround to avoid time paradoxes for the writer.

But Wonder Woman and Steve hadn't been invented yet either and they seem to work...

They're using Terminator time travel logic.

The gun wasn't covered in biological matter.

Before the gunpowder ignites in the bullet, it does a boolean check on whether or not the date is before its date of manufacturing. If not, then the gunpowder doesn't light. It's that simple.

But if that's a dinosaur then humans haven't been invented either soooo

God may or may not play dice, but the Novikov self-consistency principle definitely doesn't.
