BUSTER GETS A 'ROCKET' FOR HANDLING FIREWORKS...


Image copyright relevant owner

Here's an evocative firework image for tonight, but be sure not to copy what BUSTER and his pal are doing above (handling fireworks and setting them off in close proximity to others) as someone is likely to get badly hurt if they imitate their hijinks.  This comic was pulled at the last moment because of the cover (a few got through), which shows that the possibility of comics setting a bad example for kids (even inadvertently) is a reality recognised by publishers, not a figment of the imagination of readers like myself.  It always amazes me when people who claim that comics can have a positive effect on readers (and they can) then deny the possibility of the reverse being equally as true.  Logic dictates otherwise.
