so here's a cool site i stumbled onto
delicious covers daily ... my favorites have to be the "superman family" comics posted up there, not because of great artwork or composition, but rather because it reveals super strength and fighting for peace, justice, and the american way, doesn't mean yer home life is gonna be any more civil than yer non-crime-fighting-families ... as we can see, the in-fighting is rampant with superman goin against
his cousin and
his best friend and co-worker ... having pre-nuptial
marriage woes, and finally threatening
to kill yer grandpa for doing the ol' penny behind the ear trick ... yes sir, the times they are a changing ... it used to be you could count on super-heros to be from decent hard working families, and fight for the ol'
stars n stripes ... but
not anymore ... today's super-hero is too busy fighting, not just amongst his family, but also amongst his
co-workers (disturbing racial undertones), poaching
endangered animals, and
fightin over broads .... i tells ya ... jus don't makes em like they onced ta ...
anyway
