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

3. Injustice: Gods Among Us #17 (2013)

It's no surprise comic book series that are released weekly instead of monthly are more likely to suffer from poor art, since the artists have far less time to finalise their work. So, if you found some of the art in a weekly series a little off-putting, it's fair to just accept it for what it is.

But not always. In the Injustice: Gods Among Us series, there's a panel of Batman punching a wooden log while a concerned Catwoman looks on from behind. As far as comic art goes, this set-up sounds pretty straightforward.

Unfortunately, every aspect in this panel is a bit wonky. Batman's teeth bulge out so much, it looks like he's wearing a set of dentures ready to pop out. His welling tears look like the eyes of a subterranean alien. Because of the angle, it's not clear exactly what Batman is doing. (It looks like he's mildly annoyed that his shoulder spontaneously combusted.)

Even though Injustice has its fair share of bad artwork, this panel was so awful, the artist was compelled to redraw it when the issue was republished.
