The Dumbest Moments From Comic Books
- Thread starter BWoog
- Start date
Did the guy who looks like a fusion of Klaw, Colossus and Chuck Liddell ever turn up in anything?Not in comics but about them. Nightcrawler, Wolverine, and Storm(trio) were almost DC characters
Also, Rob Liefeld's art is always dumb/funny.

Take a shot for every art inconsistency there.
Who could forget Chapel confronting Spawn and killed himself so he can be resurrected as a hellspawn.
Or the Canon reason the first Youngblood sucked was because it was the creation of a illiterate child?
Yeah, he was a regular villain for quite a while. Some of those other people also appeared later, or already had.
If I remember correctly this is supposed to be comedic. Also the middle bottom panel was supposed to be him asking if he can now use the N word, which makes the final panel of her saying no make more sense. The editors decided to cut out that speech bubble.
Even better when you remember they're BOTH psychics.that time Xavier wanted to get with Jean
I started reading comics around the original Civil War. Read the Civil War saga, Back in Black, and then One More Day. It basically destroyed my interest in Marvel until relatively recently and that's only because someone told me about Renew Your Vows.
I admit, I never read it fully, but the panels from Batman Odyssey alone must put it up there:
We went from Ted Turner destroying a meteorite to an asinine conservation about saving molecules.
Yeah, that's a really...uh, weird choice, like you understand that it's to drive the point of the level of bigotry characters face on their world, but comparing a real hard slur to a fantasy slur is going too far.
and this bright idea:
particularly the resolution
I was fine with the idea. The conclusion is what die a little inside.
Anyone mentioned Chuck Austen's X-Men run yet? I literally can't pick out just one moment from that.
How about that one time when a dude tore out and ate Spider-Man's eye, followed by Peter Parker eating the dude's face and promptly dying, only to shed his skin and run away to form a coccoon under a bridge where he would be reborn as his old self, but then some spiders ate his old skin and turned into this hot babe made out of spiders?
...please, don't read comic books. They can't be good for ya.

Remember that time when Spider-Man HAHAHA just kidding, there couldn't possibly be any more insanely dumb Spider-Man comics stuff with all the ground we've covered in this thread, right? Of course not.
Remember that time when Bill Jemas signed off on Mark Millar writing the sex adventures of Aunt May?
This miniseries in 2003, apart from being something that literally no one had ever asked for or wanted, included the revelation that Aunt May was Peter's biological mother. Shockingly, everyone's let that one slide down the memory hole ever since.

Holy shit. What the hell is this? Like, the Silver Age (and even Bronze Age) is full of weird nonsense but this is just baffling. Imagine Batman and Superman watching these fucked up magic worms die then hug and weep into each other's arms as the dust blows away.
This is like some avant-garde shit.
...is that even Uncle Ben?Remember that time when Spider-Man HAHAHA just kidding, there couldn't possibly be any more insanely dumb Spider-Man comics stuff with all the ground we've covered in this thread, right? Of course not.

It was so desperate to be edgy that it loops back to being hilarious

I definitely didn't ask for this.
What in God's name is going on inside their mouths?AND his teammates!
Also:
If I remember correctly, it's not-actually-Aunt May cheating on not-yet-Uncle Ben (with Peter's bio-dad Richard Parker, who's cheating on Peter's not-actual-mom Mary).
how can we sleep when Bill Jemas is still out there, somewhere
lurking
How about Justice League: Cry for Justice where Green Arrow, Green Lantern and Atom torture the hell out of villains, Lian Harper is crushed to death, Red Arrow loses an arm and many more atrocities. The art is good at least.
In terms of violence, yeah. But the events are so goddamn ridiculous I can't help but laugh. Like that Hank page posted above.
The Dark Phoenix that went evil wasn't actually Jean Grey, but the Phoenix Force taking Jean Grey's form while putting Jean Grey in a cocoon in the bottom of a lake. Because it was somehow impossible to redeem Jean Grey otherwise, even if Dr. Doom and Magneto literally walk through the revolving door of morality every single year.
WTF is going on with his face when he says 'nevermind'? Also why is Cable sleeping with the Goblin Queen?Sleep with a clone of your mom brahs

I tried reading a synopsis for Odyssey like three times and I still can't make sense of it.
