10/3

Reading underground comics was a pretty big shock considering just how tame mainstream comics were. I feel like superhero comics and what's sold commercially are read to see what sort of life society would be best to live and then underground comics are more of a guilty pleasure to make the reader feel like they're not the only ones having those sort of thoughts under the surface. Their purpose is more so for the creator to just get al of their thoughts out creatively. Kind of like throwing a bunch of darts at a target all at once, the more you throw the higher the chance of hitting the target.

  1. It definitely was a big shock seeing the contrast between the underground comics and the mainstream ones. I feel like in a way, the underground comics have transformed into the webcomics that we have today (they are much more game of course). Anyone can make them, and a lot of them get very personal.
