Rebel Girl
Here’s another good comic from Robin, this time about 9/11 and his immediate reactions to it. He joins a protest with some friends from school, protesting a possible war with Afghanistan. Granted, the aftermath didn’t go well at all, but here’s a question, and I mean this sincerely: what did protesters want to do after 9/11? Anybody who could answer that question for me would be a wonderful human being. I’m against war in most instances, but how could you argue against removing the Taliban from power and hitting back against the people who were responsible for 9/11? The aftermath hasn’t gone well at all, and don’t even get me started on Iraq, but I’m curious as to what any protester, or person against the war in Afghanistan, would have done differently, given the opportunity. OK, rant over. This is shorter than his other books, and it focuses on his girlfriend at the time and his problematic relationship of the organizer of the protest.He says that his next comic is going to feature someone other than him. Hooray for range! Contact info is up there, let’s say it’s $1.
