Welcome to the latest installment of the Funny Panels thread. Please put here panels which are funny - intentionally, or less intentionally! RULES FOR THE THREAD: There are only two. 1. Post your source. If you can, ID the book and issue your panels are coming from. If you can't, say so. Either way, address it. Thusly: ![]() Journey into Mystery 634 Don't be one of those idiots, mmmk? 2. FFS post a goddamn panel. Conversation is great. Wonderful. Discussion of comics is definitely something to be encouraged in other threads, but the last thread would go entire pages of discussion with no panels and that is pretty effed up. If the discussion goes to more than two posts, please move it to derailed or Q&A, as appropriate. And now, PANELS to kick us off! ![]() Journey into Mystery 633 ![]() Source: I don't know! ![]() JLA/Hitman #1 (I think) ![]() Source: Detective Comics (somewhere between 27-38)

Posting this again, I guess! Here's the list of classes from the Jean Grey school - from the back Wolverine and the X-Men #1. ![]()

Dear god, I can't help but think it hilarious if Gambit mixed up his "Sex Ed" and "Weaponizing Household Products" lessons.

![]() From Ressentiment, volume 2, page 22, I think. Because it's what I'm reading. While most anime and manga is pretty terrible, you occasionally get something which, like Animal Farm, dolls a current or extremely prescient theme up in just enough fantasy that you can laugh at it and, at the same time, can't help but think "Oh, wait, that's kind of really happening."

Does AR actually have any substance to it, though? To be honest, those panels don't really do much for me - on first inspection it seems like it's cribbing way too much from internet-level humour (Raptors! Carl Sagan! Etc.). Is there more to it than that? And I don't just mean something like those corny panels where he's lamenting the state of 90's comics.

It's definitely more about pulp adventures than substance, but it's not just wacky reference humor either. For example in Vol. 3 Carl Sagan doesn't just randomly show up and zap a bitch for the hell of it, he's a major character throughout the chapter and he and Robo have a little talk about the boundaries of science. Within the framework of fighting an extradimensional monstrosity, sure, but it's there. The Dr. Dinosaur story and the other free ones on nuklearpower.com are pretty well representative of Robo as a whole. If those don't do it for you you're not going to like the rest of it, but if you find something you like there's going to be more like it in the print issues.

There's plenty of substance though. The one where a reporter asks him what's the hardest thing he's had to do in 80 years, and he says he's 83 years old. He does a mean Jack Benny, but nobody really gets it anymore. We the reader have just gotten done watching him write a letter to the granddaughter of a friend of his from WW2 that just died of cancer, so we get what he's really saying. I mean it's funny and sad [The cleanest story he can tell the granddaughter of their time together is the time he convinced his friend that robots can get drunk and challenged him to a drinking contest. And as he reminds the granddaughter he clearly has no mouth and can not in fact drink anything.], and it also involves SCIENCE! adventures fighting giant ants in Nevada. A lot of Robo is just good clean fun, but it's not afraid to swing away for emotion every so often.

Wait, the Daily Bugle doesn't exist anymore in the Marvel universe, at least not in print form. It was The DB, then Electro collapsed it. I know some of the old guard were trying to bring it back, but online only (I thought).

While mine lacks malicious mammals, I like it all the same. I don't think I've ever seen a writer acknowledge lovely exposition in this way. From Tales of Suspense #80 ![]() Edit: Hm, SA's image upload doesn't work.

I haven't kept up with X-comics in a while, is Iceman permanently in ice-mode now or something? Seems like every panel posted he's always iced up.

TwoPair posted:All from Hawkeye #2. Seriously, Amazing Spider-Man's awful and Gambit and Hawkeye have great books out, what mad world is this? "Aw, coffee, no" might be one of my favorite lines this year. And Gambit's solo is good? Well, there's another thing to be picking up. One final page from Wolverine and the X-Men #15 ![]() Here or in The Defenders, I love Danny Rand. Also, Tony Stark just doesn't care about Missouri or the six million people living there. Actually, a Phoenix-possessed state would be something to see.

The next Page with Broo riding off on Tony's shoulders is great, but my friend took his copy back and I can't get a scan.

Endless Mike posted:It hasn't been addressed directly (at least not in WATM, but maybe in one of the other books I don't read?), but that seems to be the case. I'm pretty sure he's showed up non-iced recently, he's just been hanging out in ice form a lot.
