When you're young, with less on the line, it's easier to be audacious, to experiment. So I introduced the concerns of my generation - politics, sex, drugs, rock-and-roll, etc. - to the comics page, which for many years caused a rolling furor.
In their heyday, comics were a dominant force in popular culture, but that's over.
Any time you bring sexuality into the comics pages, you have to brace for pushback.
