Something I don't normally post - "Context is for the weak"

[icon_uk]

I hardly ever post "Context is for the weak" images, usually because in mine, context is already pretty much spectacularly evident, but these I had to share.

They're from an officially licensed DC colouring book from the 1960's, so I think they might qualify as a comic image, but I may add an image just for the heck of it!




I'm also tempted to turn these into a caption competition.

I must apologise for the quality of the scans, but they are from a colouring book that's 40 years old, and was in grey ink on a rather poor paper stock. I've tried rebalancing the colours, to limited success, but enjoy anyway.

"Our love is a different kind of love, a purer love".. (I leave it to your imagination who might be saying it to whom, as there are many variations that work just as well)



"That's the SECOND largest giant grasshopper I've ever seen"



Batcaptivity as work ethic - discuss



And this final image is an old commission from Mitch Ballard from sometime in the 1980's, perhaps showing the Joker having updated his Factory methods into a positive production line. It is also for sale over here and it's out of my price range, so go nuts! (And no, I'm not on commission!)

As opposed to the lifelike accuracy of their representations of bats and robins? :)

Well, he's going a lot further with the 'insect' look than the Batman (who only has pointy ears and the pinked cape) or Robin (only the read breast) costumes go...and ends up looking more like a fly.
