Description“You Don’t Know Jack (page 11) A” (2020)by Carson Grubaugh (1981- ) and Dave Sim (1956-) 11 x 17 in., ink on board Coppola Collection Parody of Iron Man #1 Cover (1968) You Don't Know Jack: Two-Fisted Comic-Store Manager is a 48-page comic-book collaboration between legendary Cerebus creator Dave Sim, real-life (now, former) comic-store manager Jack VanDyke, and artist Carson Grubaugh. During the kickstarter for “You Don’t Know… Jack” (July-August, 2020), Carson included the option of creating your own package that combined the kickstarter rewards with some of the original art from the book. I like Carson’s work quite a bit (you can check out his stuff), so I grabbed the three parody covers from classic Iron Man books. As weird as they are. I admit freely to not agreeing with Sim’s strategy of taking what he believes to be the diametrically opposed position to the DEI and social justice movements, precisely because he is intentionally exaggerating what the latter is trying to accomplish, as a way (I infer) to claim that the perceived attacks on his own privilege are extreme and unfair. Yet, he’s starting from the historical status quo of privilege unfairly skewed in his direction, claiming it as Natural if not Divine Law, and so the movement towards equity is seen as a bigly distanced and wrong-minded swing. George Bernard Shaw has a nice statement about this (the original is longer, but this line is apt): “Where there is no ventilation, fresh air is declared unwholesome.” Social/Sharing |

Anything at all remotely related to the stuff I bought and read as a pre-teen in the 1960s rings my bell. You had no idea what was coming out or when. You knew where every wooden newsstand or magazine display or variety store with a spinning rack was located and within peddling distance on your bike. Thumbing through the nearly randomized books, you had to be sure you were checking every one in case there was a singleton issue spliced in there. I can barely recall what I order online, but I will always recall that stack of crisp Silver Surfer #1's and plinking down an entire quarter for a copy of a comic that was not an annual.
