As requested, here are some places to look. Golden age comics are the best for this sort of silly stuff and many are public domain, so there are multiple places to look for them. Be warned, it is overwhelming. They churned out comics back then like they were gum wrappers.

https://comicbookplus.com/

https://www.pulpmagazines.org/old-comics/

https://www.comicweb.com/golden-age-comics.html

Feel like wading through the mess of the Internet Archive if you like: https://archive.org/details/comics

If you wish to brave the evil that is Reddit, there is: https://www.reddit.com/r/GoldenAgeComics/

If anyone has other resources, feel free to add them. Please no pirate sites, there's a lot of "read today's comics online for free" sites which would violate lemmy.world ToS.

Remember rule 3: comics should not be intentionally funny. (lemmy.world)

(Meta) Rule 3 (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm honestly very confused by it. This rules make less and less sense to me everyday because the creators werent clueless idiots, damn near every post here was intentionally funny? Do you mean no humor only comics or obvious jokes?

Or is it if the character is saying it to make a joke or trying to be funny? Is it fine if the writer/artists intent was to be funny?

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

Rules:

Comics must come from actual comic books. No AI or Photoshops.
Single panels are preferred.
Comics should be unintentionally funny. Spider-man cracking wise is not what this is about.
Don't be a dick.
I can't believe I've had to add this... NO RACISM.
