Hey Kids, Comics! #199 - Red All Over

“Your Commie has no regard for human life, not even his own. And for this reason, men, I want to impress upon you the need for extreme watchfulness. The enemy may come individually, or he may come in strength. He may even come in the uniform of our own troops. But however he comes, we must stop him. We must not allow him to gain entrance to this base.” - Brigadier General Jack D. Ripper (Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb)

Get ready for a Cold War flashback as your HKC! hosts Andrew "Little Red One" Farmer and Cole "Red Scare Bear" Houston take a look at Communism in comics and the heroes and villains thereof in the history of the comics. 

A red dawn rises in comics from Red Ghost and his super-apes to the Chinese super team, Great Ten to the People's Protectorate.  Communism and the Red Scare ledto a myriad of characters that endure to this day.
