There's a good reason why most 90s kids could never forget a certain cartoon show about a particular yellow sponge character, his quirky friends and his crazy misadventures in Bikini Bottom. Yes, we're talking about one of the most unforgettable cartoon series in the past two decades or so, the one and only SpongeBob SquarePants. The city of Bikini Bottom is filled with strange conundrums and wacky mishaps, thanks to the eccentric nature of its citizens. In this ꦺcity, there are sea sponges that look like industrial sponges, chocolate-obsessed fish and a crab that ironically sells crab burgers to other sea creatures. As if those weren't strange enough, there is also a body-building lobster𓆏, a starfish with an insane appetite, an underwater squirrel immigrant and a sinister plankton.
Of course, this is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the bizarre, dumb-founding and downright hilarious world of SpongeBob SquarePants. Although Bikini Bottom's peculiar citizens alone aren't the only ones that make this series unforgettable. SpongeBob and his comical interactions with everyone else makes this series hard to forget. It's quite difficult not to chuckle when watching an episode of SpongeBob SquarePants, especially in the earlier seasons. There's enough side-splitting scenarios to keep fans laughing out loud and rolling on the floor for days. The series has left its mark on fans by depi꧋cting hilarious situations that are made even funnier with its use of comical expressions that linger in ♊the mind for weeks.
Some of these comical portrayals are so popular that fans are constantly recreating them from fan-art, memes to anything in between. After all, how can fans not relive the show's memorable moments when its jokes and puns are considered comedy gold? It's only natural for fans to come up with their very own brand of SpongeBob SquarePants comedy through their fan-art and comics. While some might chortle at these comics' funny images alone, only true fans could really appreciate their hilarious references to the beloved series. Here are 20 SpongeBob SquarePants comics to re🧔mind fans why the series al🐼ways had a special place in their hearts.
20 Sp✃ongeBob & Patrick's Infamous Logic
Whimsical duo SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star aren't just known f🔥or their wacky humor and eccentric behavior. Both of them are also known for their own brand of pseudo-witty arguments that often end in a ridiculously far-fetchꦦed conclusion. Whenever there is a conversation going on between SpongeBob and Patrick, fans just know that something silly is bound to happen. Knee-slapping humor and pun-tastic comments are just some of the things that the wacky duo specialize in, after all. Just when fans thought the two can't get any more illogical in their unintelligible banter, this comic comes in to prove them wrong.
We can almost hear SpongeBob yelling “Patrick, you're a genius!” in that last panel.
SpongeBob and ꧂Patrick might be oblivious to how ridiculous their ideas and conversations sound but this is exactly what fans love about them. This hilarious sketch was able to capture the essence of the series by perfectly highlighting the traits that make these duo so unforgettable. Of course, fans can't 🌼really expect a talking sponge and a pudgy starfish to make sense after considering the fact that, they're creatures that aren't even capable of talking to each other in the first place, let alone engage in an intellectual conversation! While it's unlikely for them to be winning any lotteries any time soon, it's certain that they've just won the hearts of fans once again.

19 ౠ ✱ Why Be Dirty Dan?
True fans of the series will definitely recognize this scene which references an episode called “Survival Of The Idiots.” In this episode, Patrick and SpongeBob were debating over which one of them should play the outlaw known as Dirty Dan. It is sometimes hard to see Patrick as a frightening figure given the oblivious nature of his character. However, this comic just turned Patrick into a force to be reckoned with, that's bent on taking away SpongeBob's chances of ever playing as Dirty Dan! Patrick might look scary in this comic, but true fans know that the ending of this episode is eveꩲn more terrifying than what he could ever be.
Now the real question is, is SpongeBob truly scared of Patrick himself or is he more frightened of what's to come when one of them claims to be Dirty Dan? Of course, Patrick's mindless nature once again shines in this comic as he still insists on being Dirty Dan. If the beastly hibernating version of Sandy ever found out which one of them is the real Dirty Dan, then i🍸t's going to be an unnerving scenario for anyone who's claiming to be the nefarious outlaw. Perhaps it would safer for them to take on the role of Pinhead Larry instead, or better yet, they should just stick to being plain ole' Sponge🅷Bob and Patrick.

18 The Infinity Burgers 😼
This reference certainly doesn't even need words to get its point across, especially for fans of both SpongeBob SquarePants and Marvel Entertainment. Of course, it would take a true fan to recognize these brightly colored Krabby Patties from the episodeജ “Patty Hype.” These colored sandwiches are designer patties that SpongeBob called “Pretty Patties.” However, what SpongeBob doesn't know is that his vibrant-looking patties are coveted by a menacing villainous tyrant known as... Patrick? Yes, this meme turned the show's seemingly harmless pink starfish into Marvel's most notorious villain Thanos, and did a good job at doing so too.
The highly-coveted Infinity Stones need an equally enticing food counterpart.
Thanos loves scouring the galaxy for his beloved infinity stones, but not this starfish-headed tyrant. He would rather have something that only resembles the infinity stones albeit in a more edible form. For Patrick-Thanos, searching across planets is hard work so fueling up on designer patties is the best way to go. What better way to remind himself of his mission than to eat hamburgers that resembles the very gems that he has been looking for? With that said, this outcome will certainly make Mister Krabs regret the time when he talked down on SpongeBob's colorful idea. If Patrick-Thanos loves Pretty Patties, then he would certainly make the entire universe do♋ the same thing🧸.
17 Chocolate Beware! 🍸
Tom Smith might seem like a regular Bikini Bottom citizen on the surface ,but he's actually the notorious crazy chocolate guy! What would happen if Tom actually got to meet up with the magical talking chocolate tree from Dora The Explorer? Well, it looks like it is not going to be a pleasant scenario for the talking chocolate tree, based on this hilarious cartoon cross-over. Fans who have seen the episode “Chocolate With Nuts” know how crazy Tom could get when anyone ment🦄ions the word chocolate to him. SpongeBob might treat food as friends, but not Tom. Especially when it comes to chocolate.
Tom had to relentlessly chased both SpongeBob and Patrick all because he wanted their chocolate bars. If he went through all that effort just to get a taste on a few pieces of chocolate bars, then just imagine what he would do to a tree that's made entirely out of chocolate! At least SpongeBob and Patrick can actually outrun Tom when he decides to chase them. But for the chocolate tree, well, it doesn't even have legs. 🦄Perhaps the tree should try and convince Tom that it's made up of something else. If all else fails then it might be best for Dora to cover her eyes on this one.
16 ♏ Square Game For A Square Name
Fans of the series know that one of SpongeBob's most favorite pastime is jellyfish catching. It's no wonder SpongeBob has Patrick as his best friend, since both of them are pretty much oblivious to how ridiculous their jellyfish-catching hobby looks like to everyone else. Pearl might be a ginormous, yet childish whale but even she knows that SpongeBob's hobby is anything but hip and cool. SpongeBob might think jellyfish catching is a fun activity, but for young and trendy people like Pearl it's certainly not something that they would consider as cool. Or as Pearl would say, “c𒈔oral.”
How can a person with a square name and body not do things that are square?
However, what Pearl failed to consider is that SpongeBob isn't just a sponge, he is also a SquarePants, who quite literally wears square pants! Timmy Turner's dad, from the cartoon The Fairly OddParents, even made an appearance in this comic just to point out the obvious to Pearl. Of course, youngsters like Pearl are too hip to understand that some people can't help but revel in activities that are considered as “square𝄹”, especially when they are literally a square!

15 ไ Blowing Bubbles & Taking Names
Best friends SpongeBob and Patrick love playing as superheroes given their fascination for local heroes Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy. That being said, it would be cool to see both of them star in their very own superhero comic. If so, then what would be the best way to portray them as a superhero duo? Enter Patricable and SpongePool! This hilarious rendition basically nailed most elements of Marvel's Deadpool and Cable characters, except for vio♑lence, of course. If there's one thing Cable and Deadpool both have in common, it's that they both love using their respective arsenal of f꧅irearms. Both of them are usually seen popping things using their lethal pistols and rifles.
On the othe♊r hand, SpongeBob and Patrick might not be fond of firearms but they have an alternative that pops just as much! Fans know that SpongeBob's bubble-blowing skills are second to none, as seen in the episode “Bubble Buddy.” This is why SpongePool only needs one bubble blower. While Patricable might not have reached SpongePool's level of mastery when it comes to bubble-blowing, at least he gets to dual-wield bubble blowers for extra pizzazz. If anyone is wondering how much damage bubble-blowing could actually do, then they should see what SpongeBob was able to do with Squidward's house after using nothing but mere bubbles.

14 Power Of The Conch 𓆉 🐓
What if the solution to life's daily dilemmas can simply be solved by an inanimate object? This is pretty much the idea behind, yet another sidesplitting episode called “Club SpongeBob.” Fortunately for fans, the iconic magic conch shell once again makes another appearance through this hilarious meme and it seems like it is still doing what it does best. Unfortunately for Squidward, the return of this notorious conch also means reliving some of the most frustrating momꦑents he had with this plastic toy.
Who could ever forget the magical conch shell that spews out the answers to life's questions?
The conch became the topic of discussion in only one episode but despite that, it still made its way into the hearts and minds of fans somehow. If the conch was able to convince both SpongeBob, Patrick and even a deranged ranger, then it just might be able to convince netizens as well. While the magic conch bas꧂ically served as the cause of Squidward's grief i▨n the episode, this meme showed that it doesn't seem to be stopping there any time soon. For any students out there who are panicking and wondering what they should be doing before school starts, the answer in this meme should be clear for them. The Conch has spoken!
13 Vert✨ically-Challenged Plank🍷ton
For someone who's ridiculously small, Plankton isn't afraid to stand tall even when it comes to facing an opposition that's ten times his size. Plankton never lets his size get in the way of his devious plots. Of course, this reckless behavior and false bravado only gets Plankton into trouble, especially when he's facing off against his arch nemesis Mister Krabs. The thing about Plankton is that his goals and ambition actually overshadows his minuscule stature. However, would Plankton's shee♑r will and determination be enough for him to go toe-to-toe against his rival?
Based on what this comic is suggesting, Plankton's bravery appa♚rently isn't enough for him to outmatch Mister Krabs. In fact, Plankton's brash statements and incessant yelling only gives away his position to a certain crab, who will now know where to lay his foot down. Despite that, the outspoken Plankton still had the guts to proclaim that he will no longer stand for Mister Krabs' competitive dominance. It turns out that Plankton's rival was the one who literally stood on top of him, instead of the other way around, oh the irony! Perhaps it would've been better for Plankton to use a megaphone for such announcements, and from a safe distance too.

12 Kare𓆉n The Dream Crusher ✤
Plankton seems to be always in an unfortunate situation most often than not. First of all, his size is definitely a huge disadvantage for his larger-than-life master plans. As if that's not enoug💦h, Plankton's computer wife, Karen, takes more control over his life than he has control over his very own robotic partner-in-crime. It also doesn't help that Planton's dreams and aspirations are basically about ten times his size. While it may be near impossible for Plankton to achieve his life goals or whatever it is he's scheming, at least he can still dream from the safe confines of his own establishment known as the Chum Bucket.
Here lies Plankton's hopes and dreams, courtesy of his computer wife Karen.
They say nothing is wrong with dreaming since it practically doesn't cost anything. Unfortunately for Plankton, Karen won't even give him the leisure of daydreaming. Fans of the series will certainly recogni🅘ze this comic's cleverly funny Chumbalaya reference. It's quite hilariously ironic how Plankton's computer wife, in this skit, becomes the one that's preventing him from achieving his dreams instead of helping him succeed. If Plankton keeps on indulging in daytime reveries, then it won't be long before his wife puts him on the menu as well.

11 Squidward The Glamorous🅺
Squidward Tentacles isn't just a cashier, he's also a musician, a painter and most of all, a frustrated artist. It is no secret that Squidward dislikes many things including his work and his social life. With that said, he's always a grumpy character who's always filled with resentment instead of joy. He's usually seen with his non-enthusiastic look coupled with his distinctly long nose and bald head, but why does he sport long and flowing, ravishing red locks in this comic? This depiction does seem uncharacteristic for someone like Squideward, but fans know ♕that i🧜t's represents him quite accurately.
Fans of the series have seen Squidward long enough to know that he's one vain character who loves to look at himself in the mirror. If that's not enough to highlight Squidward's vanity, then perhaps his artwork and sculptures could since these are mostly self portraits of himself in various poses! Fortunately for him, he gets a glamorous make-over here courtesy of Ariel from The Little Mermaid. It doesn't look like Ariel is too pleased about Squidward and the way he's taking away her spotlight though. We don't get to see Ariel visit Bikini Bottom much anyway, so it is no surprise that Squidward would want to ta🉐ke😼 advantage of such a glamorous opportunity.
