Remember Stardust? Did you ever say "Ge, this fellow sure is swell, but you know what would be really groovy? if he were a woman with a skull face!" Well, fear not, the notorious Artist/domestic abuser Fletcher Hanks cattered to that exact wish.

One of the just plain weird strips of the Golden Age. Along with the equally skewed STARDUST, it was written and drawn by Fletcher Hanks in a trippy, primitive style that seems to have strongly influenced many of the underground cartoonists of the 1960s. (The idea that Basil Wolverton and Fletcher Hanks were working at the same time sure disproves any notion that Golden Age art all looked alike.) I find it hard to describe exactly why Hank's art has such a nightmarish undertone to it, but looking at these demonized gorillas or the silhouettes of men running for their lives as an elephant-sized spider chases them is still unsettling. The heavy-handed captions reinforce the effect of the stiff, flat art. The extreme violence doesn't help (we see arms and legs fly up in the air as one bad guy is dismembered by his army of gorillas.)
The strip first appeared in Fiction House' JUNGLE COMICS# 2 in February 1940. Fantomah is usually listed as the first super-powered heroine in comics but I imagine someone will find some even more obscure heroine somewhere who appeared a few months earlier. There were a lot more women characters in the Golden Age than people seem to think. And who IS Fantomah? Well, your guess is as good as mine. I don't see any origin or explanation anywhere, she's just there. Complete with plucked eyebrows, mascara, lipstick and a black one-piece bathing suit. Described as a "Mystery Woman of the Jungle," Fantomah sort of just hangs around somewhere in Africa; no home, no friends or supporting cast, we never see her sleeping or eating. She stands around scanning the area with her psychic powers, looking for any threats to the well-being of the people and animals. When something menacing starts (like a native chief bent on conquest or white treasure hunters or mad scientists, you know.. the usual), Fantomah appears to warn them to knock it off. They never listen. After some mayhem and carnage, she goes back and enacts some gruesome punishment on them. She's a lot like the Spectre in this regard, a little bit more mean than your usual super-hero. Maybe she was an avenging ghost herself, as her name implies, but only Fletcher Hanks knew and he's long gone.

Like Stardust, Fantomah has whatever powers seem useful at the moment. Mostly, she flies around insi

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
The nurse asked the rabbit, “what is your blood type?”
“I am probably a type O” said the rabbit.

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB
Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"
I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual
So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

How the hell am I suppose to know when it’s raining in Sweden?
We told her she can lean on us for support. Although, we are going to have to change her driver's license, her height is going down by a foot. I don't want to go too far out on a limb here but it better not be a hack job.
Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.
But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.

Gender is fluid.
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"
Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"
But let me give it a shot.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

It really does, I swear!
