Comic panels taken out of comics so we can make fun of them!! We love the golden age stuff!
Rules:
-
Comics must come from actual comic books. No AI or Photoshops.
-
Single panels are preferred.
-
Comics should be unintentionally funny. Spider-man cracking wise is not what this is about.
-
Don't be a dick.
-
I can't believe I've had to add this... NO RACISM.

DDT is an extreme way to get rid of mosquitos. Seal up the gaps in your window screens. Keep the bedroom door closed. It's working for me during mosquito season on the subtropical island where I live.
I realize I'm giving advice to a comic about a banned chemical.
DDT is what killed off Malaria in Europe (and probably in most of the US too, but I don't know as much about that).
It saved a hundred thousand times more lives than it may have cost.
Uh think more along the lines of it causing the genocide of bees. Without bees for our food supply, ddt is gonna cost way more lives than it saved.
Bees aren't the only pollinators, by a long shot. And do you have some evidence that DDT was wiping them out in the first place? You A-OK with the pesticides were using now, that are actually killing off honey bees?
LOL, no, you don't. Because Varroa mites, introduced in the 90s, long after DDT, are what are killing our honey bees.
