We have absolutely no clue where this artwork comes from, but one can only presume that some confused Sunday school class somewhere is learning that the Three Wise Men once battled the Sinister Six and that Lazarus had a mutant healing factor.

Disney princesses don’t always get along in these adorable comics

As much as Disney princesses have in common: their elaborate outfits, one true loves, and tendency to burst out in song, they wouldn’t necessarily get along if you stuck them in the same room.

Jamie the Trickster is a webcomic about a man and a woman who happen to be the same person

Holy crap, this is the most terrifying Garfield strip ever published

Even if you possess the absolute baseline of pop cultural literacy, you’re probably aware of Garfield, that orange comic strip cat who’s spent the past thirty-odd years terrorizing his man-child owner.
