I am going to be the first to say it. By today's standards, this cartoon (above) is clearly sexist. I'm keen on publishing a book that is going to cover material that (again, by 2021 community norms) is going to upset people due to the racist (and sexist, and other) comments within. Is it a reason not to publish? I think not. Comics and comic strips reflect the times that they were created in. More of what I am working on, as the project begins to take shape.... (No clues here, right? If you really need to know, please check out the Comicoz Facebook page...)
