comix issue! (part 2)

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
