Comic panels taken out of comics so we can make fun of them!! We love the golden age stuff!

Rules:

  1. Comics must come from actual comic books. No AI or Photoshops.

  2. Single panels are preferred.

  3. Comics should be unintentionally funny. Spider-man cracking wise is not what this is about.

  4. Don't be a dick.

  5. I can't believe I've had to add this... NO RACISM.

Yep, if she's got enough control (or whatever deus ex machina of the week) to not sap life out of people touching her (normally her main weakness), then it makes sense to power her up with all the powers available at the time so she can go kick ass.

Maybe if multiple people are touching her simultaneously then she only takes a fraction out of each individual?

This fits both my head canon and my understanding of how her powers are supposed to work but it really depends on who’s writing.

Still a cool panel, I was afraid the crop would be the best bit or even better than the whole.

This is always the goofiest moment of X-Men to me, when cyclops starts responding to the narrator

You could look at it a number of other ways too. It could be:

It’s Cyclops’ inner dialogue

The narrator is narrating in time to his “NO!”s

Cyclops is the narrator

I dunno, I like it. Makes it feel personal.

Or the grief has driven him insane, allowing him to hear the narrator.

That was my interpretation. Kinda like Deadpool or, sometimes, the Joker.

Another excellent interpretation!
