Readcomix Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I'll throw this one in the mix too, as its one of the tougher ones to find. I've stated this before elsewhere on the boards, but I think of this as a poor man's Cap 46/sleeper book. While it lacks the overtness of shoving someone into the oven, the looks of those in front of the firing squad and the general setting (train tracks, transport vehicle, etc) suggest concentration camp to me. Yet another side of Biro to do one of this sort. PUNYHUMAN and Tsp99 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly piqued my interest and I will now read the book. It's a great book. The most in-depth examination of Wertham's madness (and all that led up to it) and the aftermath. At times it's a pretty dry read, but it has information you won't find anywhere else. And an awesome Charles Burns cover. sagii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A One-Man Wertham Wet Dream The ironic thing is, Biro was a bit of a Wertham himself in his attitude toward crime, if you read his editorials in the some of the Crime books. It seemed showing graphic violence was just a means to an end for him, but thank goodness for his quirky methods, or we would be bereft of a multitude of classic covers.
