What only a few consider while reading the colorful booklets is their function as a medium of communicating subliminal information. This subject will be illustrated by a historical overview of how comics have been used in Nazi or Fascist times to circulate political propaganda or questionable images of women. Even today, hidden messages are implemented to influence the reader\u2019s opinion. Captain America or Persepolis have more to share than you may be aware of&#8230;<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/2&Prime;][vc_single_image image=\u00a0\u00bb9356&Prime; img_size=\u00a0\u00bbmedium\u00a0\u00bb alignment=\u00a0\u00bbcenter\u00a0\u00bb onclick=\u00a0\u00bbimg_link_large\u00a0\u00bb][\/vc_column][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/2&Prime;][vc_column_text]<span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: #72005f;\"><em><strong>\u00ab\u00a0Comics are perfect for propaganda purposes,\u00a0\u00bb<\/strong> <\/em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">explains Di Franco.<\/span><em><strong> \u00ab\u00a0If we want to be amused and entertained, our critical defense systems are not activated.
