Overview
What does it mean when a Super hero’s uniform is based on his country’s flag? Art and politics have crossed over in many forms and comic books are no exception. From fantastic story lines like Lex Luthor becoming the President of the United States to the real historical comic books based on the war in Bosnia, comic books have examined the subject of politics in a fantastic and often very realistic light.
