I noticed a down tick in viewship on this forum right after the election... [View all]

Yeah, it's depressing having a psychopath as a president elect. right there with you, but now more than ever we need to allow ourselves to escape a little.

having a cartoon as a president elect is kinda hard to square with the fantasy aspect of comics with cartoon heroes, but there's nothing wrong with indulging yourself with a caped hero to boost ones outlook on life.

I'm currently doing an epic read of all the X-Men comics from the very beginning. It's an epic task, but time after time the X-Men have been knocked down, in some pretty amazing ways, and the writers always find a new and clever way for them to bounce back.

That's our task as Dems, we now need to find new and clever ways to bounce back.

find that inspiration in your favorite comic.

Cheers!
