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.

You do know the moon doesn't generate its own light, right?
A mirror doesn't generate its own light either, but would you try shooting a weapons grade laser into one and pointing it at one of your eye sockets?
The original post is equivalent to saying "this mirror is 1/8 the brightness of the light bulb in my room" and then buying 8 mirrors and turning off the light bulb.
That's the fun of out of context comics. This one doesn't state that the goal is to replace the sun, but to equal its brightness.
Suppose batman has a new sun-powered gadget, except well he's Batman so it needs to work at night. But he'd need 455000 moons to pull that off, and yet he does it somehow.
I'd read that comic...
