The most ironic is that you hate politics in comics but that’s always been one of the most well known aspects of comics.

It’s Vertigo, but the recent American Carnage by Bryan Edward Hill and Leandro Fernandez feels extremely relevant.

Green Arrow has always been pretty political. In addition to the famous Green Lantern/Green Arrow run in the 70s there’s also Mike Grell’s 1988 series that dealt with a lot of political issues (CIA involvement in foreign conflicts, fallout from Vietnam, etc.). Judd Winick’s series had Oliver Queen become mayor of Star City, so it was literally a political comic for a while. The Rebirth series has pitted Green Arrow against a lot of corrupt businessmen and politicians.

Superheros being political? Or superheros being one of the most well known aspects of comics?

Super-Heroes? Political?
GASP!
“Superman Smashes the Klan” and the 90s’ “Superman: The Man of Steel” # 80-82 are excellent.
Frankly, I could stand for super-heroes to get more overtly political, not less. Trying to remain neutral only ever benefits the corrupt and powerful.

It’s funny how people that want comics to be less political are the ones that don’t read comics

Green Lantern /Green Arrow. Amazing stuff that is still incredibly relevant today. I think this page sums up everything about the series.

I remember seeing that on twitter, and it blow my mind.
#76 of Green Lantern is one of the best issues I have ever read, the only other issue that I hold in such high regard is #34 of Swamp Thing. It’s even better because in the TPB I have, the panel is only on 1 page, just to re-enforce how important it is.

Hands down, the “Political Asylum” Etrigan storyline by the late/great Dwayne McDuffie is one of the most brilliant pieces of satire that is more relevant than ever 3 decades later
