The best moment comes in Issue 7, where a Foreign Legionnaire is dragged into Korea and laments having to leave his “nice clean little war” in Vietnam to join the Korean police action. troops had little to no respect for Koreans, even the civilians they were allegedly there to save.) (This is, unfortunately, historically accurate: U.S. I was expecting it - I don’t think there’s a vintage war comic in existence without racial slurs - but two sentences? Really?

On a totally unrelated note, remember when Republicans didn’t want to let in refugees from certain countries in case there were terrorists among them? It’s almost like that entire line of reasoning is racist garbage!Īs you may imagine, racism is rampant throughout this series. It was official policy for them to shoot indiscriminately at all refugees, just in case Northern infiltrators were hiding in their midst. The writers couldn’t have known this, but the Americans were just as murderous as their enemies. I feel like I just glimpsed the Mirror Universe version of M*A*S*H.
