>>102073724Is it just me, or is there a lot of untrampled snow in Tom Strong regarding the fascism? And not just fascism, but even Nazism directly? I mean in terms of how many direct parallels there are between Tom and Ingrid? Maybe I'm insane, but I'm seeing a lot.
First, you have the city Tom lives in. It seems to exist around him and because of him. After, hard to argue with a god damned skyscraper gold statue
>>102073818, and the fact that the city doesn't really celebrate New Years so much as Tom Strong himself, and they do so within a shrine dedicated to him
>>102076845. He didn't build it, but he sure as shit monopolized on it.
Second, they're both super human. And I mean that in the Nazi-ish Ubermensch way. Both born and raised special coming from superior stock. Ingrid is a war crime experiment, and Tom is apparently raised by an impossibly genius father on a magical jungle island. And they're both clearly above everyone else and lording it over everyone. For Ingrid that's obvious - she's a Nazi. But Tom maintains his impossible lifespan via magical science stuff
>>102076420 and uses that to lord over a cult of personality, the Strongmen of America
>>102076582. Here's the thing. Look at those people. They are old. Really old. Decrepit. And they MUST be younger than Tom himself. So Tom and his family are hording this magitech that allows them to be almost ageless and, apparently, rule over the populous. Apparently, it allows 60 year old women to have children, since Albrecht is 60
>>102076613 and is saying he doesn't want his sister to reproduce
