What are the lines, plot devices, situations put in a comic, or fan posts, that just made you think "WTF?!?"?

For me, it was reading so-called "spoilers" for JSA arcs where the poster leaked that Captain Marvel was either tricked or forced into yelling "SHAZAM!" in the middle of a battle.

Consistent with Shazamgrrl's original post, I think that while ret-conned embarrassments are certainly interesting to discuss here, that Shazamgrrl's opening thesis for the topic is broad enough to include any comic book story that has blown your mind and made you say: WOAH !!!

That can be WTF in a bad way, WTF in a good way, WTF in a continuity way, or WTF in an embarassing ret-conned way.

Again, I vote for all-inclusiveness.

Funny ret-conned-out embarassments, as well as in-continuity mind-blowers, and stuff that just makes you laugh at its goofiness, like the JLI/JLE stuff.

Narrowing the WTF nominees will take some of the fun out of it, and make for less posting here, and a much shorter topic.







Also, I actually did post some MAD covers on page 10 of the topic.

While I agree with you that continuity WTF's are fun and the primary focus here, I like the all-inclusiveness of mentioning other amusing comics oddities, such as MAD, or HANSI THE GIRL WHO LOVED THE SWASTIKA.

Or MOEBIUS # 0: THE HORNY GOOF.
Or PUNISHER VS. ARCHIE, and so forth.
