This is a superb book that illustrates how the global political climate influenced the evolution of comicbooks over the history of the genre. From the great depression to current day, we can see the world itself reflected in the pages of our favorite heroes/antiheroes/villains. I highly recommend giving Worlds Collide a shot. It's a quick and enjoyable read for any history and/or comic buff.
