Welcome to Litsy!

Didn't feel quite as sharp as the first volume. Definitely still heavy on the commentary, but it was less about a specific clutch of problems one might first have seen in the late 50s/early 60s and more about bigger questions, some with arguably a more modern origin: Is civilization a good idea? Is it the anthropocentric or capitalistic aspects of the current ideas of civilization which are the problem? Can urban planning and military action 1/?

Care of Magical Creatures OWL: 5⭐️

When you go into a Flintstones comic, you don't expect it to cover the amount of hard hitting topics that it does. This volume covers a variety of topics ranging from caring for those you don't know, the meaning of religion and how science plays into that, war, politics, and consumerism. I highly suggest it for anyone that wants a quick read on something that addresses serious topics in a light and fun way.

The Flintstones volume 2 (end)
I had no idea this was meant to be a limited run series. I didn‘t realize it until I finished this volume and did some research. Overall a good short series 👍 A fun modern twist on the classic stone age family 😁

Genuinely brilliant. Turning the Flintstones into goofy socio-political commentary shouldn‘t have worked, but it turned out absolutely brilliant. This is some of the best stuff on the shelves, a combination of kitschy humor and genuine insight that moves at a rapid-fire pace and always has something to say. Essential reading.
