Politics and Jewishness in Comics

Show Notes:

A few months back, Art Spiegelman wrote an article about how Marvel censored an essay he wrote for them. This prompted us to talk about the role of politics and Jewishness in comics. And with Ike Perlmutter in the news with Kevin Feige's promotion, this seemed like the perfect time to bring this one out. Plus, we haven't had anything else to talk about for a while.
