Mr. Block is a comic from the early 1900s following someone that might seem eerily familiar, named Mr. Block. This comic was created by Ernest Riebe for the still running International Worker, a newspaper published by the Industrial Workers of the World. The IWW is an international syndicalist union who believe workers run the world. They have existed since 1909, with famous organizers like Mother Jones as founding members. While this community is focused on Mr. Block, all IWW comics are welcome!

Mr. Block works hard on his own and is a true patriot, unlike those anarchists at the I.W.W. who believe that you need to 'organize' and 'work together' for higher wages. Like a lot of folks, he's on hard times, but if he keeps trying to make the boss happy, maybe he'll be rewarded!
