On the other hand, comics were used (especially in the 40s) to bolster national pride. Captain America, I think, is the best example of this (and I, of course, don't know if he's DC or Marvel...)
I think comics are fantasy, and to a certain extent they are completely separate from real life. But how relevant can they be, how much can readers connect with them, if they remain completely uninvolved and unaffected by current concerns?
