Little Zemo in Censorland

Had a small flood in my basement recently that destroyed much of my stored artwork from the 90s.  A few weird odds and ends survived, though.  I thought I'd share some of these slightly embarrassing bits from way back.

All the way back in 1991 the Comic Legends Legal Defence Fund was gathering submissions for their second fundraiser book. True North II.  It was essentially a Canadian version of the CBLDF and a response to similar acts of thuggery by Canadian police and prosecutors.  I was 23, and as troubled by a shocking number of police shootings as the acts of censorship, so I slammed them together in this:

I recall donating the artwork as well -- no idea if it sold.
