David Smith (aka King Power Cinema) created the character of Buckshot, a racist flying strong man packing a double-barreled shotgun and a pronounced racial bias. Based on this, somehow, we co-wrote a 22-page comic. Looking back on it now, I am a little queasy about the ambiguity of the satire. Clearly when I posted it on the digitalwebbing forums some years back, there were two camps: one that firmly believed the comic was promoting racism, one that took it as satirical and absurdist. It spawned dozens of comments back and forth.
Given the uneven quality of the pages though, I'm just posting an excerpt here so anyone who might be interested can get the flavor of it:
God forbid that you post the whole thing. After all, somebody might actually end up enjoying your work.
