The comic book industry continues to do what industry execs have admitted is hurting their sales: politicize its beloved characters for the sake of the social justice agenda. The most recent hot button issues tackled by none other than the original superhero himself are illegal immigration and white supremacy.
Right on the heels of President Trump’s announcement that he was eventually going to shut down Obama’s executive overreach on immigration, DACA, comes the latest issue of Action Comics’ Superman series (issued #987, “The Oz Effect“) in which Superman rescues a group of “undocumented immigrants” from an American flag bandana-wearing, machine gun-wielding white man bitter about illegals taking his job.
