Synopsis: "In the years between the end of WWII and the mid-1950's the popular culture of today was invented in the pulpy, boldly illustrated pages of comic books. But no soomer had comics emerged than they were beaten down by mass bonfires, congressional hearings, and a McCarthyish panic over their unmonitorred and uncensored content. This book is about that panic." — partially from the trade paperback's back cover copy.
