In Ronin there was a gang of Afro supremacists and a group of white supremacists who consistently fought each other and caused chaos.

The main character responded to both their bullshit by murdering both their leaders

a lot of people had similar ideas in the 90s. sci fi just notices existing trends and exaggerates them

Yeah, but this isn't Ronin, it's Martha Washington. Granted, how the presidency went in Martha Washington was only a bit less weird than IRL.

Don't tell me, they recolored it and it's washed out and drab and dull and they've dragged someone in front of a microphone to talk about how it's SO much better now.

Martha Washington's a weird book but good. It felt very choppy to me. Gibbons is so good

There's a panel in Hard Boiled that's the same kill shot as in Lone Wolf and Cub so I know Miller homaged it

Pretty cool in my opinion.
There were some short tales of Martha published too, pretty good stuff but in black and white format.

Is there a bigger fall from the grace in comics than Frank Miller? His work in the 80's and the early 90's is varied and groundbreaking.
But then his mind just got lost in gutters of Sin City and never found a way out of it.

Have you not paid attention to Neal Adams who now peddles expanding earth theories and whose comics are incomprehensible mess every time he does something new?

Or people can see certain developements. In the 90s you could write about nature being unbalanced. Now it would be prophetic.
And dont forget that people will glance over stories that were wrong but will parade the fitting ones around.

Do zoomers just not know about all the scares with white nationalist groups during the Reagan and Bush administrations? Like, they at least know about Oklahoma City, right?
People were scared as shit of Aryan Nation and Brotherhood types, before the War on Terror they were like the go-to generic bad guys in comics.

It's like seeing a school shooting in a comic in 2000 and being like "woah I can't believe they predicted modern times"

There is at least one book that had this topic and made it bigger. And now you can point back and insist, that prediction!
