20 Most Unintentionally Hilarious Comic Book Panels Of All Time
8. Batman Is Weak In The Knees
It's a little shocking to see Robin run out on Batman so quickly. Sure, he left Batmans knees all wobbly, but why not stick around for some quality cuddle time in the afterglow? At least Batman maintained his sense of etiquette and courtesy and thanked his sidekick for the experience.
7. A Surprise For Aunt May
Aunt May has always doted on her nephew Peter Parker, unwitting to the fact that hes secretly masquerading as the superhero Spider-Man. But here, it appears that May is breaking the cardinal rule in raising a teenage boy if the door is closed, its best to just leave him be. And under no circumstances should she investigate any kind of sticky substance oozing from underneath his bedroom door.
6. Robin Exposes Himself
In this scene, Robin already landed the plane the way Batman wanted him to. How is this not enough for the Dark Knight? Instead, Robin is to stay where he is and expose himself? Isnt being a teenage sidekick who is constantly subjected to inadvertently sexual abuse shame in itself?
5. Superman Grabs His Hose
Demonstrating how all good things come in threes, this panel is unintentionally hilarious because 1) Superman says his stiffening up 2) Because of said stiffening he needs to grab a "hose" and 3) The undefined liquid thats cover his upper torso and shoulders. Depending on how dirty your mind is, the Spooosh sound effect is icing on the cake.
