Speaking of libertarian comics, Irwin A Schiff used to make "educational" libertarian comics in what I would describe as the old Archie style.

The whole 112-page comic "How An Economy Grows" is available online for free and it's flat out dumb from start to finish. It's like Flintstones, but worse.



I like that it instantly uses 'hunger' as a reason why his friends need the net after using it as a reason he needed the net.

As if...they have similar needs, and maybe helping others meet their basic, shared, needs would lead to a more productive cave-society in general?

Oh I buy that for sure and people are welcome to like or dislke whatever but there seems to be a trend to try to make subjective opinions into objective reality by saying that something isn't bad, it's problematic.

What? People are saying it's bad. It's a bad story, poorly written, that also is loving insanely insensitive and stupid.

and I know you can't judge a company's entire ethos by their top rank's personal views and all but the head of Marvel IS a big Trump buddy and goes to events with him and poo poo.

That dude obviously hasn't read the actual comics, because at no point in Jason Aaron's Thor or The Mighty Thor or even Unworthy Thor does any of that stuff happen.

yea isn't the entire point of that storyline that even as 'unworthy' Thor is still a good man who needs to figure out where he stands in the grand cosmic conflicts of the universe because hey while he was an rear end in a top hat maybe the guy who thought the gods need to get the gently caress out wasn't 100% wrong? That's hardly making GBS threads on the dude, if anything it's some of the most chance for growth Thor has gotten in ages.

No I'm saying that wringing your hands over whether to buy stuff that you like because the author, or publisher, or whatever might be a "bad person" is stupid.

no one is demanding self-flagellation or whatever, we're just saying we like being able to control our money a bit better.
