Last thread spawned really good discussion, let's continue.
OLD: What would a political comics look like? Comfy adventures with superheroes saving the day and solving crimes? More Right-wing version of what we see now? Western manga? Would a company that dedicated itself to an apolitical approach be successful in winning back lapsed fans?
Other urls found in this thread:
You can't make apolitical comics because people are political and see political things in everything, whether it has an intended political message or not.
If you make a comic about a caveman who wanders prehistoric times, finds another man who's starving and decides to share a piece of sabertooth tiger with him, some fucker out there will call your character a socialist.
>some fucker out there will call your character a socialist
But that's the reader's interpretation/analysis. That's different than portraying said caveman as a socialist and then decrying capitalism in the dialogue.
Is me shitting my pants political?
I swear only left leaning people say that "Everything is political" bullshit
>Would a company that dedicated itself to an apolitical approach be successful in winning back lapsed fans?
Isn't that essentially what REDACTED is doing? Early days though, who knows if it can last for decades the way the direct market did
So?
Fuckers will tell you that was your agenda when writing the comic.
I'm gonna fuck you in the ass
Only brainlets pretend fiction isn't political by its nature.
