So this is a weird one… I’m seeing in the post details that there’s 8 comments on this post, but none are showing as visible to me.
I’m also not seeing anything in the modlog for this post… so where are all the comments?
Did we decide to start fucking shadowbanning on Lemmy or something or is there some other explanation here?
Oh weird, they’re showing up under the “Chat” option for some reason?
I’m so confused by this post.
what is that option actually

This comic fucking rips, if you’ve never seen or read it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Flintstones_(2016_comic_book)
Fred and his best friend, Barney Rubble, participated in the Bedrock Wars, where they and other soldiers were deceived by the conqueror, Mordok the Destroyer, into committing genocide against the Tree People and burning down their home to establish Bedrock. Barney and his wife Betty raised the infant sole survivor of the Tree People as their son, Bamm-Bamm. The “Loyal Order of Water Buffalos Lodge” from the original show is instead depicted as a veterans group the two attend to help them deal with the trauma of the ordeal.

Damn that’s wild, AMC writers do your thang
It fucking rules, I’m not kidding! It’s so worth a read. I need to see if the Snagglepuss comic they put out in the same style is also good.
I felt that Snagglepuss was even better. I don’t want to give any of the story away, but he’s a counterculture playwright in LA Hollywood during the McCarthy era red scare of the early 50s.
It’s an amazingly beautiful book and story.
You’re right, it is better, and the Flintstones comic was already really good! I went into it knowing a lot of the historical details of the time, but it was a fantastic and emotionally moving representation of it. 10/10.
Just checked out a digital copy from the library 👍
