Thought you might get a kick out of this. Interesting commentary too.

That’s was a very hard read, it does cover some of the reasons for the economic and manufacturing decline in the U.S. but offers no answers, outside of some nonsense fantasy bridge building. Is it meant to be entertainment? If so I cannot imagine who would find it so, obviously not for children, a teen would probably find it intolerable, there may be adults that read comics, but I am fairly certain it will not stimulate them into any positive action. Who, I wonder is Macsteel’s target, and what is the objective? If the idea is to stimulate young people to find an answer for the future of our country, I find it asinine. Perhaps its message is just corporate government propaganda, your future is bleak you will suffer, but accept it, don’t worry don’t try to fix it, a hero will save you with a fantasy. Heck, it just might work for a nation that meekly turned over much of its freedom for a false sense of security.

it's been fun, later!

Well I thought it was great.... I read it twice and found it very entertaining ... some great perspectives and opinion... Its a work of fiction presented in a very graphic format, not for everyone I suppose, but I am glad you posted it....

Whatever you are, be a good one.
