Reading Monica by Daniel Clowes and thought The Great Corruption sounded like an apt name for our current moment.
Cartoon panel. In the foreground one blue-skinned humanoid in a red top and orange hair holds down a white-skinned man while another blue-skinned humanoid strangles the mab. In the mid-background we see the back of a blue-skinned creature wearing a tophat, with blond long blond hair, ready to whip a blond white-skinned person hanging by their arms from the wall. In the far background we can see a city street with suggestions of smoke and more violence. The text reads: Thence began a great corruption. A reign of terror under which all good townsfolk were either slaughtered or debased. Made servant to that falsest of idols. And so it is to this day! The image is a panel from the book Monica by Daniel Clowes.
