The Silver Age was gross.

I love it when people discover Silver Age weirdness and their minds get blown.

@larryashlynn: One of my personal favourites

That first scan was obviously written by a BDSM fetishist who has a slight disposition towards paternal incest.

...I'm not sure if I should laugh or revolt in disgust.

Simple, silver age.

Good Lord, DC.

And I don't ever not read that "Barry Arren" panel in South Park voices.

@armiv2: To be fair the Captain Marvel panel was from his Fawcett days.

oh god....

What's going on?

Easy: these were drawn in an era when people no longer assumed the worst of other people and no one was obsessed with finding excuses to smirk. Also: they were drawn in an era back when people actually bothered to learn history and understand things within a historical context.

Sorry, just wanted to inject a moment of basic adult insight. You can all go back to your elementary school smirking again.

I'll even help you along -- hey, guess what, Robin's first name is Dick *snicker* *snort* *immature gasps of hilarity* There, feel better now?

(EDIT: Perhaps I'm being a touch harsh in my sarcasm above, but making fun of these panels is so commonplace and so easy. Haven't the superhero fans of the internet outgrown this kind of cheap humor by now?)
