A Nod to the Spirit of John Q: Reflecting on 2002
A four-panel black-and-white comic titled 'NATIONAL CONCERN' by Todd Umbarger. The first panel shows two men, one in a hoodie, with text about the shooting of United Health CEO Brian Thompson and the banning of Four Loko. The second panel features a smiling woman holding an assault rifle, with text about political sympathy for the shooter and healthcare system failure. The third panel shows four suited figures with paper bags over their heads, representing corporate executives, with text about pundits scolding the public. The fourth panel shows an elderly woman holding a handgun with 'DENIED' on her forehead, next to a poster of the woman from panel two, with text proposing that since healthcare coverage is denied, Americans will cover each other's 'asses' instead.
