Already done!

To the point where Kick Out Zwarte Piet, the main action group, disbanded itself last year.

Still some racist assholes clinging on to it but on the whole he's gone, gone, gone.

Was always waey whenever I saw a comic with a cover by him because the covers were always great but the interior art (by a different artist) often disappointed!

A chimp holds an elephant by the trunk, whose tail is clamped on by a hippi, whose tail is held by a bear, who holds a lama and her child holds the lama's tail while holding hands with a kangaroo whose tail is finally held by nick, in a red pyjama.  

Barely visible is a small bird holding on to the chimp's hand, keeping them all afloat.

Barely visible is a small bird holding on to the chimp's hand, keeping them all afloat.

And now for something completely different: Hermann does Little Nemo, sort of.

Nick was a short lived series written by his brother in law, the same who got him drawing comics in the first place.

The first page of Jeremiah 01, four full length panels. The first shows racial demonstrations, the second images of civil war, the third the ruins of a nuked city and the final panel shows how nature has grown up over them.

There have been few artists as effective at introducing the setting for their new series as Hermann is here, the first page of the first Jeremiah story:

Cover off Sarajevo Tango, showing the title in blood red against a black background.

RIP Herman Huppen (1938 - 2026).

Sarajevo Tango (1995) was perhaps his most personal work, his disgust and horror at the atrocities happening palpable on every page.

Not in the least because his agent and friend, Ervin Rustemagic, had been caught up in it.

How is ", there is a lot of antisemitism on the left, has been for years" not saying it's a huge problem.

Quibble about words if you must, but why make a callout thread if you don't think it's an important or huge problem?

The only exampe you gave was of Occupy Democrats or whatever, not a leftist organisation.

Funny how witnessing genocide live and in living colour does that.

Did you give any examples of actual antisemitism by actual leftists though?

You keep saying that this is a huge leftist problem but struggle to provide more than one or two, debatable incidents and dismiss any criticism as proving your point.

'I was wrong. My apologies'. would've been a better answer.

Now you just come off as a genocide apologist.

If you only like idol shows if they're not really about idols, you don't actually like idol shows.

Normally like Simonson's writing but after Stern's stellar run this was a disappointment.
