Well, I can't comment, 'cause I haven't read it - but I will say that, if this was the mid-'80's, such a thing would have still been considered fairly daring in a 'mainstream' comic. I mean, not too long before that, the censors would have eaten their ties at the very thought of such a thing. (And yes, underground comics, of course - but considering that just about ANYTHING went in those, they might not be the best example.) Still, like I said - haven't read it, so can't comment.
