The Ten-Cent Plague

The Los Angeles Times, whose redesigned website is actually usable for once, ran a review of 'The Ten-Cent Plague' by David Hajdu in today's Books section. "How comic book creators tested the limits of content in the face of an ever-changing bonfire brigade" by Geoff Boucher paints a picture of a book I am very interested in reading.

The book relates the story of how comic publisher Bill Gaines was brought before congress to when comic books were chosen as the "next great threat to America." This is definitely worth a peak.
