People watch with horror as the planes crash into the WTC towers. Fire burns. Buildings collapse. Mass hysteria. Evacuations, police sirens blaring, news sites swamped, a stunned population tied to their TV sets.
I don’t know how to say this without it sounding flip, if not grotesque, but that’s life in a comic book universe. Buildings collapse, planes crash, hundreds die (off-screen) on a regular basis. Pick up any copy of Avengers, Fantastic Four, Justice League, Green Lantern.
How do you survive in such an environment? Not just physically, but emotionally?
Y’know, this may seem odd, but comic books have never seemed as unrealistic as right this moment.
