This might seriously be the most pretentious thing I've ever read
The first time Mark Russell did the "old cartoon, but depression" thing with The Flintstones it was novel and interesting, but every other comic he wrote for DC was just a rehash of the same idea.
It is.>You should feel bad about McCarthy era red scare!>Also here is the two actual spies the McCarthy era executed for actual red spying crimes.
>>150157758>>Also here is the two actual spies the McCarthy era executed for actual red spying crimes.I don't care about some furry melodrama slop or whatever this is but McCarthy had nothing to do with catching actual spies.
>>150157735>and interestingIt really wasn't
>>150157817Technically he's referring to the two spies who stole nuclear secrets who's arrest and execution lead to the creation of the House of Unamerican Activities, which then proceeded to catch zero spies and ruin a bunch of actors careers because they were at a parade at one time, coached in a way to suggest JoeMac had the slightest thing to do with their capture. Some breathtaking revisionism honestly.
>>150157817A Senator had nothing to do with the HUAC either
>>150157504Even more pretentious when McCarthy was 100% right and literal commie agents had infiltrated both the highest offices of the State Department and the entertainment industry which has been corroborated by KGB files released after the fall of the Soviet Union, unironically he saw more of a witch trial than the people accused and half the shit attributed to him are outright fabrications.
>>150157817>McCarthy had nothing to do with catching actual spiesJulius and Ethel Rosenberg, David Greenglass, Harry Gold, and Morton Sobell were just nobodies then trading fairy tales with the soviets then.But yeah keep telling yourself that it didn't accomplish anything and it was all paranoia.
>>150158659*technically* McCarthy had little to do with catching spies, he got entirely stonewalled and attacked himself the second he tried to draw attention to the credible evidence of commie infiltration he had.
>>150158659NTA. The fact of the matter is that it didn’t catch enough spies.
>>150157735I hated Flintstones too.
>>150159931Flintstones is okay until you read another Mark Russell comic and realize that's his entire shtick
>>150159967reminds me of kingone story wonders
>>150160334And that one story stinks.
>>150158659these are some interesting last names
>>150157735Russell peaked as a writer at that suicide hotline joke and that was like 3 issues into that run. He's fucking rancid otherwise.
>>150157735Mark Russel is a 50 year old man that writes what you'd expect a college kid to write. It feels like he has no real world experience and just has the same surface level political opinions of every college kid.
>>150160831it can work well with realistic characters or whateverbut slapping that onto mr. miracle or whoever is ass
>>150161868>or whateverYou're absolutely clueless. It would only work if they weren't shit writers.
>>150162176ok?
>>150160998I don't think we're allowed to notice surname trends outside of /pol/.
>>150160998All of them were ethnically Russian.
>>150157504I want to fuck Snagglepuss.
>>150163455Wrong fag
>>150157504Does this even answer the Big question? was he homo or not?
>>150164218Just because he takes dick in his ass and mouth sometimes does not make him a homo.
>>150164218Him being gay is like the whole plot of the comic
>>150161269That joke sucked.
