Nice thing about America is everyone has a right to his or her own opinion.
Now my opinion on this issue just happens to be: That Two guys responsible for the Comics, Richie Rich and Casper. Have not qualifications to read for themselves a report over 500 pages and then congest it into a comic book with 100 pages, factor in amount of text they can put in comic book form and then it really has to be congested. No one can do this with out giving it his or her own personal slant. And as always you can bet it slants to the left.
These guys are cartoonist, attempting to influence young minds with their interpretation of history. I might swallow it a little better if a History Professor or someone with better qualifications wrote a simpler record of the events.
"Even more disturbing were the narratives appearing in this comic book; it’s casting of the individuals carrying out these evil acts as "newcomers" and "Hamburg pilots," not terrorists, is unconscionable." (CARMEN D. VILLANI JR.)
Here is quote from the author himself: Jacobson -- emphasizing that he used "99 percent" of the commission's words in the adaptation: "We very possibly fell into some comic book tricks, but it truly didn't bother us, and for the most part, it shouldn't bother people."
As a Parent if my children need to know what happened on that day, I will do the interpretation and explain it to them. Then as they get older they can learn about it in History class and Political Science class, then they can form their own opinions.
I think some things are best left out of comics
Death of Christ
Pearl Harbor
JFK Being Shot
911
Few others but you get the point.
God help us when we need Comics to explain things of this magnitude to our Children!
