It was a 1986 comic was created by a man named Dick Hafer.
Well the site which featured the comic book has found yet another one by Hafer and it's just as nasty, probably more repulsive. It was created just as AIDS came on the scene. Notice how the work of discredited researcher Paul Cameron is cited:
The webpage featuring this comic is not anti-gay. It's a site that looks at "problem-based comics" from the past.
But it is still an excellent look at the past of anti-gay activism and we must ask ourselves (yet again) are the messages we get from the religious right today really any different from the ones Hafer threw out?

Unbelievable. I actually went to the site and looked and the whole thing, or at least all of what they had posted. It's not just repulsive, it's actually disturbing. It's on the level of "The Turner Diaries" or "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion".
The fact that ANYONE endorsed it (As you previously illustrated with the still of the back jacket) is scary.
The sole comforting thought is that it faded into obscurity. Unfortunately the attitude hasn't quite done the same.
