* Inverted when the school board in Mc[==]Minn County, Tennessee voted to ban the ''ComicBook/{{Maus}}'' graphic novels from its middle school library. One of the reasons cited was nudity. Since the book is about the Holocaust and portrays Jews as mice, this led to people on social media (including George Takei) mocking the board for being offended at "naked cartoon mice." But anyone who has actually read the books will know that ''Maus Vol. 1'' includes the 1972 short comic strip "Prisoner on Hell Planet," which is about cartoonist Art Spiegelman's mother committing suicide. Her very-human and very-naked body is shown in a bathtub after slitting her wrists, and her nipples are plainly visible. The fact that the school board's reaction to that scene was to focus on her breasts [[NippleAndDimed is a problem by itself]], but ''that'' was the nudity they were referring to, not the mice.

* When the ''ComicBook/{{Werner}}'' Race between the comic's creator Brösel and his manager Holgi was announced for 1988, the BILD had to write an article about it. That was when the newspaper still only had grayscale photographs. One of them shows Brösel's bike, [[CoolBike a custom-made, four-engined Horex dragster named "Red Porsche Killer"]] [[{{Defictionalization}} which had appeared in a comic about the same race before]]. Its designer and builder Ölfuß is standing next it, and the life-sized Werner figure that had been made for a book fair is sitting on it. In the caption below, there are four mistakes: One, the "Red Porsche Killer" is described as only a quarter as expensive as it actually was. Two, it's also described as red. It's actually metallic pink; the "Red" refers to Holgi's Porsche that it was designed to beat. Three, Brösel's real name is misspelled. Four, it's allegedly Brösel himself with a Werner mask who is sitting on the bike. It should be obvious from the FourFingeredHands and the shape and size of the head that this is not a human.\\
Brösel dedicated the entire first chapter of the documentary book ''The Race'' to this newspaper article and especially the caption. Not only did he liken the photographer to a mole for being so blind, but he re-wrote the entire newspaper article--''with even more mistakes'', throwing names, places, jobs, vehicle brands, numbers and single digits about until nothing made a sense anymore and including all-new misspellings.
