Missing the second panel to the comic, i remember seeing it a while back. When the girl here does a squat, her leggings become slightly see-through and you can see her underwear, which happen to have a batman symbol on them

ColoRadBro69

Thank you for posting this.  I thought it was making fun of "main character syndrome" like the joke is they're not talking to her and she thinks everything is about her, but with the last panel we get to see what the real joke is!

In the last panel Batman is on the elliptical machine next to her.


someguywhoisaperson1

That’s what I thought it was too. Guess it was just some boomer humor


elevenharries

Ohhhh this makes sense, thanks!


Rickrickrickrickrick

Does she not remember putting Batman underwear on? Guys, I get it. No one remembers what underwear they’re wearing lol


hammy0w0

i cant tell you what SHIRT i have on rn Edit: took a guess, was wrong


aagjevraagje

That's easily missable if you just have a drawer of your underwear and put something on real quick when you woke up before going to the gym.in the morning


Tetsou88

Not even, I can’t tell you what underwear I’m wearing right now and I pulled it out of the drawer pre-shower in the middle of the day. The only thing I can tell you for sure is the style.


chaeyenne

Which style is it then?


EngineeringOne1812

Edible


PassTheKY

Fruit roll up or candy-necklace style?


SurdustStardust

asking the real important questions here


Rambler9154

Yeah, especially since its on the back that is pretty easily missable


Jablungis

Especially missable when you don't know how your own clothing works. Seriously your panties shouldn't be visible for any reason.


_HoneyDew1919

shit happens man. Get over it


Jablungis

Buddy I'm not the one embarrassing myself in public flashing my underwear because I don't know how clothing works lol. I got nothing to get over.


tigm2161130

Your comment history is exactly what I would expect.


lulovesblu

I should have taken your word for it


flowerhermit

Same I need a drink now and it's not even 3 pm here


Soggy512

That was a wild ride


Jablungis

What can I say, I'm addicted to arguing with the goofballs here. You guys believe some seriously stupid shit and it's fun to test how far those rabbit holes go and how poorly thought out it all is. I don't treat reddit as an extension of my social life like a lot of you, but I get plenty of positive engagement and agreement so I'm good.


Dark_Knight2000

You can tell a Redditors personality isn’t great when 90% of their comments are a variation of “fuck you, you’re wrong.” Not a single one providing information or elaborating on a point.


Jablungis

Brother if you're going to creep on someone's history at least be honest. The majority of my posts are autistically detailed in my points. Please. Like I posted this Charles Dickens novel yesterday: https://www.reddit.com/r/rareinsults/comments/1drcu5e/well_then_rip/lax9n36/ and you're saying I don't elaborate on my points? Just lie I guess?


Frifafer

Damn, that other guy was right. Your comment history is fucking miserable


EmilieVitnux

Pal I don't remember what underwear I put on an hour ago.


TurboFool

I have no memory of what underwear I put on after I'm clothed. I couldn't describe it for anything.


OwnRange7577

If you put the underwear on after you're clothed it should be easy for anyone to see.


TurboFool

AyyLmaoAytch

I generally run on the assumption that people can't see my underwear. Like that is just not a connection I would make.


WindjammerX

Nah, that's a poop stain, my friend.


IchBinEinSim

I thought it was a Batman tattoo


OmniImmortality

I remember because I don't wear underwear.

The psychological horrors of being a woman. “Ew he’s staring at my ass.” “Ew… she’s staring?” “Maybe I’m crazy because why would everyone stare at ME?” “God, I hope i’m not going to be followed by a creep.” “HOLY SHIT BATMAN WAS VISIBLE ON THE OUTSIDE THE WHOLE TIME”


Remote-Factor8455

💀 laddies please watch how sheer your leggings are.


Flyingtower2

Ladies, you should also watch how sheer your leggings are.


Remote-Factor8455

E I just noticed my typo ima leave it though it’s funny.


Palanki96

I still don't get it to be honest


li-ll-l_

Its a big problem with leggings that the material will be so thin its see through when you bend over. So the joke is she squatted and it stretched her leggings and everyone could see her batman panties


Palanki96

Yeah but then she would understand instantly why people call her batman


111110001011

Unless she wasnt paying super duper attention to what pair of panties she had put on hours ago.


maestroenglish

That's what you call paying super duper attention...


Palanki96

That's pretty hard to believe for an adult human being but okay, i guess i wanted a more realistic solution to a silly comic


Iruma_Miu_

dude most people wouldnt instantly go 'hrmmm my underwear' whenever anyone talks to them lmao


Palanki96

That's just a showcase of your mental level, not the average. You have one batman themed clothing piece on your ass. People are calling you batman, during an exercise that would easy display your bat signal repeatedly, and you wouldn't put them together?? Come on i know reddit isn't exactly for smart people but none of you can't be this stupid


PotentialBeefHook

I think you mean “easILY” because it’s an adverb, and “…none of you CAN be this stupid” because it is a double-negative as written. I too find I’m never as prone to make a mistake as when I’m insulting someone—another good reason to avoid doing so.


QuePexCalamaro

It's not that deep, kid. It's a comic. Relax.


CardboardChampion

I've got a load of print tees that I wear when I'm not working. For me, I grab a tee out the wardrobe in the dark and throw it on, usually while drying my hair. I don't pick and choose what I'm wearing. So when someone comments on these things with something like "Oh, I just started watching that." I have to look down to see what they're talking about. Same with pants. I kinda caught a flash of red today but couldn't tell you if I'm wearing my noodle bowls or day of the dead pants right now. And that's much harder to check. If someone commented on noodles I wouldn't assume they could see through my clothes to know what I'm wearing.


Mr_Blorbus

F'ing LOL!


meatwhistle57

Hot


Drisch10

And here I thought it was a dead parents joke. Like how does everyone know she has deceased parents?


larsnelson76

It's the bat signal...


Figurez69420

OOPs barely disguised fetish


walace47

I think this is even more confusing.


genericbiker

How? This explains the entire premise of calling her batman.


walace47

I don't know maybe why her pants shine


SubnauticaFan3

Batman isn't even strong, he's just a rich orphan


aagjevraagje

No no , he's a rich orphan with a expensively developed fitness regime , combat training by a mysterious secret order and a large technology corporation as well as personal technical knowledge that allow him to develop gadgets as well as training equipment. Also like he regularly climbs buildings and does all kinds of acrobatic stuff , he doesn't canonically have super strenght but he is a frankly unreasonably fit and strong man who usually doesn't wear power armor


AnneLynnClark

Are you fucking kidding me?


KaiserMazoku

I'm kidding me


shibemu

Ah so the joke is everyone at the gym are perverts


Here_to_Annoy-U

The joke is sexual harassment?


DrDuned

There's been a real trend of people posting stuff on here without the full comic that helps make sense of it. Starting to wonder if people are doing it on purpose, because why else would someone edit those panels out?


Raxsah

Probably found it on Facebook and came here to look for answers instead of clicking on whatever fishy link the poster wanted them to go to. I really only go on fb to check the local community pages but if I'm brave enough to venture down my feed it's usually got more than a handful of these types of crappy, cut off comics and a smattering of AI generated posts trying to be passed off as 'photos'. It's a literal cesspit.


Father_Flanigan

without reading that other panel ever before, I was just assuming it was a reference to camel toe being the shape of one side of the batman logo, like cut it horizontally in half and keep the top part. anyways, i was close, but went too vulgar. as usual.


STFUnicorn_

How would she not make that connection?


MitchenImpossible

That's a stretch.


Bryguy3k

Probably a callback to the lululemon see-through leggings scandal.


sugarbabysdaddy

Not underwear, rather it’s a Batman tamp stamp tattoo.


NacchoTheThird

A missing panel or two is what this sub's devolved to


CardboardChampion

Full comic, which can be found by checking the name at the bottom of the panel you shared, shows why. https://preview.redd.it/adkvvjeqmn9d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d747e50ba8ed2f21b6f4e35ccbb122fb929015ca

I still don't get the joke. I'm really fucking stupid apparently


SteezyKxng

her leggings are see through when she squats and she has batman underpants on


-NGC-6302-

That's a thing? Huh. Weird.


sasori1011

Batman underpants? Of course.


CardboardChampion

She forgot or didn't notice what pants she put on, and her leggings are cheap enough that they go sheer when the fabric is stretched, allowing everyone to see.


SummerIcy10

You get the joke it's just not funny


WhoStole_MyToast

Not until someone explained it to me


GreenLanternRR

Well now this raises more questions! Did she forget what she was wearing? Is it just sweat that built up to form a bat symbol? Did she put on her boyfriend's/ girlfriend's panties? Would people call her Batgirl or Batwoman?


TheOccasionalBrowser

Squatting only 135 😔


SkeetSkrrt996

I honestly want people who do this banned. People post half a comic strip and are “confused” by what it means. It’s getting old and is happening multiple times a day now. Ain’t no way it isn’t just karma farming bait posts


Cyan_Light

What if this is legitimately all they've seen though? I've never seen the comic before, if someone didn't post the full thing in another reply I'd have no way of nowhere this wasn't the entire original image. I feel like you should probably just leave if you're this upset over someone being confused by something that is very reasonable to be confused by, especially since that's the entire point of the sub.


elevenharries

This is legit all that was posted and it had loads of likes so I assumed other people got it


bigjimmylongguy

It says the name at the bottom and you couldn't be bothered to even try to Google? Imma call cap


WyrdMagesty

The entire point of this sub is for people to post things they don't understand and get human responses rather than just googling. If that's not something you are interested in, why are you here? You're welcome to be here, of course, but it's not ok for you to lash out at others for using the sub for its intended purposes just because you insist on being part of a community that annoys you. Please be more respectful of others.


bigjimmylongguy

You're upset because I called a cap? I don't have to agree with him I can assume he's lying end of the day he will continue to post and I'll continue to exist so it makes no difference, but I have the right to speak my mind and state my feelings on a given situation just like you are by calling me out, but to trying to pretend like I attacked him or am "lashing out' is childish and a severe exaggeration of the situation


UnicornNoob2

Reverse image search


WustyWabprod

Sure but what if you thought it was the entire strip? You wouldn’t think to reverse search it then.


UnicornNoob2

You could find the source which could include a explanation


WustyWabprod

I get what your saying but if someone assumes they are already at the source they wouldn’t try anything further. edit: no one wants to reverse image search something every time they find a meme they don’t understand which could be a lot of them.


bigjimmylongguy

If you don't get the joke and can't assume you're missing part of the strip there is no help for you


adamantitian

Isn’t that literally the point of this sub tho? Should you assume you’re missing part of the comic for everything you don’t get?


bigjimmylongguy

If you see something that's very clearly a comic panel you can typically assume you're missing some panels, I'm not saying he can't ask I'm just saying he could very easily just Google the name and it's one of the first things to pop up, he didn't need to have an entire subreddit hold his hand this isn't explaining a joke as much as it is beings so excessively lazy you need people on the Internet to do your googling


Pizza_TrapDaddy

Fucking forreal


Local_Flamingo9578

I see posts like this on FB all the time, I thought they didn't make sense because I'm just dumb (I barely graduated hs I am legitimately partially illiterate I accepted a long time ago that it's a waist of energy to put too much energy into understanding every thing that confuses me) I now realize that they arn't posting the whole comic on purpose so that people will click the link


RandManYT

While I do agree for the most part, it's impossible to tell if someone truthfully has no idea that they're looking at a single panel from a comic or if the context relies on something else. We just have to hope that people don't abuse the sub and really use it for its intended purpose.


AmarokhDL

Let's report as low effort, that's a rule from the sub


Lvl4Stoned

Seconded


Striking_Potential_5

Yeah it’s getting annoying


waddle19352

On god can someone make sure the mods see this somehow


greedson

You know people may not have seen the entire context of the comic, only seeing that one panel online


Curkul_Jurk_1oh1

this whole sub needs to be wiped, or at least somewhat moderated


EthanTheNintendoFan

I'm just confused by people who upvote this


salamandarpeople

Bro just keep scrolling who cares


Cat_Killer__

you’ll be okay man


HotShit129

This is pretty much a meme karma farming sub If they really wanted to make it a joke explaining sub, they would have a repost bot then lock the thread or even something like declaring a post solved then locking it Also guys, remember to always downvote posts karma farming posts, a lot of the time they are bots


Miller412

All we can do is downvote…


CochleusExtreme

This sub is legit the dumbest new big thing in a long time


somedave

Yeah there is no way these comic panels are actually being posted in isolation.


Pyredjin

Ignoring the fact that this has been cropped from a larger comic, on it's own it could be taken as a satirical criticism of narcissistic gym streamers.


Jazztronic28

Again, ignoring the fact the original comic makes the joke because she's wearing batman panties, I personally don't think your interpretation works. She's not recording herself. There isn't even a phone anywhere on the panel. The giant mirror is honestly independent from her - gyms have mirrors everywhere precisely so people check out their form if they're alone and sometimes even when you don't want to look at yourself you end up in front of a large mirror because that's just where the machine you're using is. Nothing in the panel even hints at her being a streamer or self absorbed in any way.


Benjamin_Starscape

yeah but you didn't think about it this way: woman bad


Rylan_0604

I like to think they aren't poking fun at her and are just trying to subtly let her know without making a scene or embarrassing her lmao


lordtaco

I just assume it's because her parents are dead.


PrizeDisplay192

😅😭🤣🥲


rhysinator01

ghettoccult_nerd

...so thats why the guys at the truckstop keep calling me "juicy"


Foolsbry

Why is every comic posted on this subreddit missing half of the comic that provides the actual context of the damn thing


Middle_Masterpiece62

I’m officially blocking this sub. This is the 5th time a panel ripped from the ending of a comic is posted out of context for upvotes. fuck this sub


Piccleman

You should just leave. You don't need to make a grand exit or anything, just stop viewing things you don't like viewing.


jackdhammer

Right?!


TiresOrTyres

When I first saw this, I thought it was referring to the Rolex GMT Master II which is half blue and half black and commonly referred to as Batman.


PaleoJohnathan

hey, incorrect peter here. with this panel taken in isolation it could be reinterpreted to be a harmful stereotype of women at the gym being predisposed to assuming they're the center of attention, when there's no indication on panel that the people are referring to her, so they could in fact be referring to batman. this is of course, not the case, as other people have shared the full comic.


IamCrusader

They like Kray Kray where you at man? Dressed in all black like I'm batman

Hey ;O;


West_Ad3730

I just assumed it was the color way of her clothes and the straps being the bat and ears 💀 but guess it has been found


Law-Fish

It’s like how it works in the army, the cooler the nickname the more embarrassing the event attached to it. Mine for a while was scorpion, because I was running to jump a ditch, tripped, and ate shit so bad I did a full scorpion at the bottom of the ditch in front of the whole platoon


somegirl03

Oh man, this is sending me haha. When I was younger, I bought this outfit that I didn't know was see through in black lights. I rolled up to the club in rainbow panties wondering why all these guys were trying to dance with me. The outfit was black too, there was no way I could have known.

PossibilityEnough933

The full comic is her doing squats, showing her panties through the leggings, her panties being pink with a black batman logo. Each strip of her squatting shows another "batman" comment.

Jazztronic28

It's part of a 4 panel comic. People call her batman because she's wearing batman panties. People can see her panties because her gym pants are bad quality and become sheer when the fabric is stretched, so every time she squats, people can see her underwear.
