If she’s ever president I think finding your next meal will be more important than the value of a comic book. Communist countries aren’t typically hotbeds for collectors of anything.

My ass will be moving to Australia, and that's not a Rosie O'Donnell promise either.

No hating here, utmost respect for all my fellow collectors.

I do like the Australian gun laws and health care, but those lame covers on the Detective, etc golden age reprints may make you reconsider

Harsh bunch here.... Just sayin...

The Founding Fathers INTENDED for there to be some AOC's in Congress. One could argue our second and third Presidents - Adams and Jefferson - would have agreed with her on many issues. They were both rather radical. Adams by today's standards, Jefferson by the standards of the day.

I hardly ever buy new comic books. But I do collect political themed comic books (my degree is Poly Sci) just last week I found a "Howard Stern Vs Rush Limbaugh" comic book. Being a left leaning moderate, I think both of those individuals are loony tunes. Just different ends of the loony tune scale. But I bought the comic. Because it's politically themed. And kinda funny....

So if I run across this comic, I'll add it to my politically themed comic book collection. As for AOC, carry on. Congress was supposed to represent a broad cross section of opinion and profession. It's only recently become a rich person's hang out.

No one should really be surprised by this. And it WILL sell. Political commentary and satire cartoons have been around since the 1700's. But since comics were seen as "children's books" until recent history, the political artists didn't do them. But now that comic books have a largely young adult base, they are doing political comic books. It's just part of the natural evolution of our hobby.

All the media attention around this representative is due to her young age, attractive appearance, and outspoken voice. The media gives her a huge soap box because they like her story and appearance. Once again another media outlet which will capitalize on whatever good or bad to make more money.

With all that said, I don’t hate her. I don’t support her either. I believe her heart is in the right place but she is so far from being able to cultivate her beliefs into any sort of meaningful legislation. She needs to play with the other swamp vultures first. Once she is nice and jaded, she will be in a good position to sacrifice some poor group of people to get a slice of what she wants. After all that is how the game of politics is played......


I really like your comments. I mean even though your opinions are sorta sad and depressing, there is probably a lot of truth.

But I'll politely disagree on the "never buy a comic book about a politician". Do you feel the same way about professional athletes? Rock and Roll bands? As I've said I collect politically themed comics. And they show up in the strangest places. Reagan's Raiders? Awesome covers. Bullwinkle and Rocky #4? Reagan on the cover. Kennedy had LOTS of comic books that he appeared in. On the cover, in the story. And several that were about him. So if you are interested in comic books and interested in politics, it is a natural fit.

Funny post. My answer is YES. I would buy it. Has nothing to do with her views. I own Barry Goldwater's comic book too. I collect politically themed comic books. There are a LOT of them. FAR MORE than most people realize. So you can mix politics and comic books. The comic book publishers have been doing it since forever

I admit I do find her incredible popularity among the Trump haters interesting, since she is basically Trump-Left. Won’t be buying her comic, though, or anything else she is selling.

According to a survey from finder.com, Americans spent $40 billion last year while shopping drunk. Maybe this all this is part of that result?

I am now a government worker as well and we don’t get paid to well, so the last thing I want is some one jacking up the taxes so someone else can have free whatever or another.

Hard pass on AOC, she is a disgrace to politics and is basically a socialist poster child for the Democrats. If you do a parody comic you have to do it right, example below!

"I am treated poorly so everyone should be treated poorly" is actually an argument we should try treating people well.

Side note: I have this feeling that government workers would be better off under AOC or someone like her than, say, the current administration.

She has no fundamental knowledge of human history. Her socialist viewpoints are scary. I'd still like to see her do a centerfold however.
