Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Gets Her Own Superhero Comic by All-Star Creators
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the Representative from New York's 14th Congressional district that nobody can seem to stop talking about, whether it be progressive liberals touting her bold attitude, social media savvy, and Green New Deal, establishment Democrats worriedly trying to dismiss her policy ideas as too radical before their billionaire donors and corporate masters get too angry, or Republicans who are pretty sure now they got it wrong about Obama being the Anti-Christ because it's definitely Ocasio-Cortez.
And now, she's getting her own superhero comic, from Devil's Due and 1First Comics, with an all-star creative team including Josh Blaylock, Dean Haspiel, Pat Shand, Shawn DePasquale, Hoyt Silva, Jill Thompson, Tim Seeley, and more. In addition to stories from the various creative teams, the book will also feature "bonus activities and games." Some of the proceeds will be donated to charity.
Will this comic book be the spark that ignites the powder keg that kicks off the next civil war? Hopefully Devil's Due will be able to purchase a fancy bunker with all the money they rake in from both fans and detractors. It's capitalism in action for a comic about a socialist, and everybody's money is as Green as the New Deal!
