Everett being woke as fuck too. Can you imagine the reich-wing rage nowadays if a newspaper ran a comic where a bigot gets punched in the face?
"Hey now, why is Captain America beating up Nazis? That's a little biased!"
Seems like he never misses
I'd never heard of these comics until this community was made. Thanks for sharing.
The author of this strip had seriously bi-polar swings between good and evil. This dude can be both misogynistic and yet defend women. He can be racist and yet anti-racist. I don't really understand.
There's something for everyone. Not very different from the bible.
Better than the Bible, I'd argue.
1948?
I thought so too, but the comics stopped being produced in '27, so I'm not sure that's right.
There's a bunch more with that date here. Maybe he did some more of them later on?
Maybe it was a special collaboration project (with Antifa?).
I wonder if it's even real. None of the other images when searching Google has any sort of similar date.
You mean the dates are wrong? That's probably on me for fetching the comics from Twitter lol. Feel free to correct anytime.
*I think I read that wrong lol my brain isn't englishing right now. carry on
This outburst is inconsistent with the other extremely racist outbursts from this same series.
I wonder if this was the artist coming back and rectifying some of the more problematic comics?
