The Ten-Cent Plague: The Great Comic-Book Scare and How It Changed America Paperback - 2009
by David Hajdu
In the 1940s and 1950s, American popular culture was first created in the pulpy, boldly illustrated pages of comic books, only to be beaten down by a McCarthyish panic over their unmonitored and uncensored content. Esteemed critic Hajdu vividly evokes the rise, fall, and rise again of comics.
