Showers can be Dangerous to your Health
Well...they can be dangerous if you happen to be a Green Lantern at least. I originally thought briefly about including some of these in our recent Whack a Lantern week, but then, awed by the sheer pulchritude of the subjects, decided that such beefcakery deserved a separate post.
First off, here's Kyle in all of his soggy glory.
He's actually NOT in danger in this particular scan...unless of course he has a less than firm grip on that towel.
Hal on the other hand...!
Oh...Hal. You really can't blame that on anything or anybody but yourself. No Sinestro, no yellow ceiling tiles, no lamps, birds or toy airplanes. Let's just face it...Hal's a klutz. I don't care HOW fabulous a test pilot, nor how suave he may be, the man is just clumsy.
This however, is my absolute favorite, when it comes to the inherent perils of daily hygiene.
Yeah, that's a highly befuddled Wally, and his friend Chunk, who are scaring the pants off of Guy. The story is a bit on the confusing side, but it DOES have its moments of hilarity. I've actually shown these before, but it's been a while, and what the heck.
Nothing like repeated blows to the head, to make a Green Lantern feel right at home. Hal would be proud.
I guess the moral of the story is...laugh and the world laughs with you. Shower, and you shower alone. Or SHOULD, at any rate.
Why don't these sort of things happen to Batman?

How come we never get to see John or Alan take a shower? Alan may be an old geezer, but he's still hot!
GLEEEEEEEPP!
Good grief...when did Kyle get to be so buff?
I second the motion for Alan and John to shower on-panel. Though I bet their showers will be less eventful than Hal and Guy's were.
Duskdog, the way you phrased that made me think at first that you wanted Alan and John to shower together.
Actually, that could work.
I've never SEEN Alan nor John in the shower.
*sigh*
A great opportunity wasted. Although Alan strikes me as more of a bath kind of guy. John never seems to be half-nekkid, or even gets his costume ripped. It's a darned shame.
Hal on the other hand, probably dances around with curtains wide open.
Really tough guys, like Jonah Hex, bath once a month in a tub of gritty water. That's what Alan does, except he just has a tub of gravel.
A tub of gravel? Now THAT'S manly!
Speaking of missed opportunities...
...That bar of soap should have been yellow.
Back in Alan's day, gravel was all they had to bathe in! And they had to haul it up from the dry riverbed, too. Six miles, uphill both ways, sometimes in the snow!
Yes Sally, I bet Hal is one of those people who walks around naked in his house and never shuts the curtains. Partially because he knows he's hot, yes, but also partially because he's kind of dumb and probably never thinks about things like that.
Oh definitely.
