Notes
Anti-Racism and Blazing Combat
KB discusses Warren’s Blazing Combat while thinking about how little collected comics made by and about African-Americans are. “Set in Vietnam, I find this story not so much anti-war, although it
certainly doesn’t shirk from depicting the harsh realities of war, but
more of an anti-racist comic[.]” There are scans! (via Black Comics)
