About this listen

This second part of our look at the portrayal of drug use in comic books focuses on stories published after the revision of the Comics Code in 1971. This deep dive examines how real-life events such as the Vietnam War and the “War on Drugs” influenced everything from superhero stories to romance comics and how messages from politicians made their way into the pages of the funny books.
