10 Most Messed Up Moments In DC Comics
1. Lois Lane's Questionable Hypnotism
With comics, you sometimes have to accept that older issues may have heroes doing stuff that's now considered pretty awful – as general attitudes towards a whole heap of subjects have changed drastically over time.
However, there are certain events and comics that, regardless of when they were written, are just creepy as hell. For example, hypnotising a child-version of your love interest to be in love with you while making them refer to you as ‘aunty’ is the single most messed up thing available – in the comic world, or elsewhere.
Yet this is exactly the role Lois Lane has in the Superman's Girlfriend comic - also known as the most indescribably uncomfortable comic that human hands have made.
The idea that the whole thing is supposed to be a charming spot of comedy -and not one of the most horrifyingly messed up moments in comic history - is ludicrously worrying, and the fact that at least one writer thought it was a good idea makes it doubly so.
