Inappropriate comic book covers

[sherkahn]

It's been a rough weekend, and so in order to brings some chuckles, raise some eyebrows and make some people hot under the collar, some covers to comics of yesteryear that appear to be not-so-innocent, courtesy of Maxim magazine.




Captain Cold sold the pics to the tabloids and made a TON of money.


Sooo....


Bondage? Rainbows? Muscles? Promises of fantasies fulfilled?


"When the Lilliputians had found Cap, his penis had been so traumatized that it went back into his body cavity, and he passed out from the pain. So they took him to the Maw, where the resident healer would have to ..."


The next panel shows the results of what happened with the angered lad, the viciously sharp knife and the prankster.


World's Finest....oh so fine....


That will always get your undivided attention, allowing Batman to walk up and land a haymaker....

Well no, it's not that obscure, but I'm still with you on this one. Sometimes a pearl necklace is just a pearl necklace, and the phrase seems particularly innocent in the context of "what are you getting Betty for her birthday? 'Cause she though you were buying her pearl necklace." OH, OK THEN. I mean, I'm not really sure why that exchange should conjure up a mental image of Archie jizzing over Betty's clavicles either.

Except Betty doesn't say buying, but "She's expecting a pearl necklace."

Cut to a confused Veronica, as Archie solemnly unzips his pants on date night.

Yes, lowbrow college humor...

Yeah, exactly - there's 'dirty minds', and then there's 'searching desperately for something to dirty your mind with'. I mean, that comic was published decades before the term was ever created, and it's OBVIOUS what it MEANS - it means an actual pearl necklace. I don't WANT a mental picture of Archie giving her the... other sort of pearl necklace, thank you very much. It makes me feel all icky inside.
