With these covers populating the rack it becomes harder to blame the older generation for their preconceptions about comics. It seems that most of the stuff before the late 70's was insane. Imagine seeing some of these issues today.
I guess there is nothing scarier to white society than an enormous black man with an interesting taste in costumes and a need to ventilate his stomach.
First of all the very concept of Christian recruiting comics is hilarious, especially one that involves the smuggling of bibles. Secondly, the boy is asking God to purposely blind people, (those people being Russians that look Japanese?)
Everybody knows there's nothing more heroic than killing animals, especially when that animal is the dreaded Snowy Cat Panda.
Apparently saying the magic words makes your crotch disappear. Notice that it's only men that are terrified.
And finally a comic so full of awesome I would pay quadruple the price (40 cents) to read it today. Going by its cover it involves cowboys fighting nazis and it stars Spurs Jackson and his gay boxing vigilantes. I'm not quite sure where space comes into play though.
