Exquisite Suffering 165: Lost Word of Jenny
🕑 Added 2023-05-17 20:49:46 +0000 UTCThe Lost Word of Jenny is a Famicom oddity that was never released in the west, at least until someone did a fan translation of it. And it makes you wonder... why? Jenny was a Japanese equivalent to the Barbie doll, which explains its limited appear here in the states... but there's also the bizarre character roster and some VERY fast and loose usage of outfits that look a lot like KKK uniforms. Uncomfortable to say the least.

I really like Gene Luen Yang. I'll have to give this a read. I have the dc comics service. -GB

Earthbound had the Happy Happy cult in Klan outfits (that were blue) and that’s all I can think of in terms of other Japanese depictions of those freaks.

Couple that breaks up other power couples is just a Hitman elusive target like the one guy at Mendoza

Superman Smashes the Klan!! It's really good! It is an all ages affair but it is written by Gene Luen Yang and he makes it an immigrant allegory thing with supes and these pov characters who are an asian american family. Definitely recommended it if your local library has a copy
