10 Hilariously Bad Comic Book Panels You Won't Believe Exist

4. Doom Can't Stop Jamming - Spidey Super Stories #53 (1981)

In Spidey Super Stories #53, Doctor Doom tries to form an alliance with Namor the Submariner, hoping to use his Atlantean army to take over the world. When Namor refuses to help, Doom becomes enraged, and places a slave collar on him. Unable to break free from his restraints, Namor is left with no choice but to bring the metal-clad dictator to his kingdom.

Five seconds after the pair arrive at the throne room, Doom notices a sea horn on the ground, and immediately becomes transfixed by it. Although Namor orders Doom to leave it be, the maniacal monarch ignores his pleas, and begins tooting the horn, which summons a sea monster.

Just to reiterate, Doctor Doom was ready to take over Atlantis, but stopped because he wanted to have a go on a musical instrument he found lying on the floor. Why would anyone would do that? Why would Doctor Doom, of all people, do that? Also, how is Doom able to play that thing underwater?

Although many entries on this list seem silly out-of-context, this is among the few comic book panels that's more ridiculous IN context.
