It's interesting to make parallels from History to today. Since I am a history major I constantly do this through my classes. On a side note, it is kind of comical to see how I have progressed over the years trhough my major. I mean, when I started college I constantly thought of examples from today that I could relate what I was learning to. Then come senior year and I all the sudden find myself finding examples from History where I can explane today or 'predicte' current events.
Anyway, this is relevant and it relates to censorship of comic books and graphic novels. It was crazy to learn about the censorship and how people actually thought that graphic novels influenced children into becoming criminals. I understand but I just started thinking about the prohibition era and how well that worked out, (said with sarcasm if you can't detect it). Also, I wonder if those regulations are still used today? Are comic books still censored that hard core? If anyone knows they should get back to me. I don't get it I mean it's like blaming a gun if someone gets shot.
