    Flag Smasher goes "Don't do Nationalism Kids!" by doing terrorism. Probably the most fantastical and unrealistic character in comics. As have you ever heard of a place where terrorism happens and the locals go "yeah, wow, I fucking despise my country now?"

    Less tied to reality than Superman, as hey.. maybe someone can fly and shit some day, but Flag Smasher is proven shit.

        Damn, I guess Flag Smasher isn't that out there of an idea.

          Tbh I thought I was just being a wiseass until I really thought about. I was 13 when 9/11 happened, had already read about The School of the Americas and A People’s History and it really did feel like a “chickens coming home to roost” moment.

          I always thought Flagsmasher was amusing because he looks like Space Ghost but hates the nation-state.

      Also I just realized they are a group of Anarchists, so this is going to be a boring TV show where nothing happens.
