Dr. Wertham Presumes. A selection of the "worst" in comic books up until Frederic Wertham wrote his silly book. Then again, if it wasn't for the un-Jung Wertham, we would never have known the lowdown on Batman and Robin.

Thanks a lot, Bob. Unlike today's pampered overcompensated stars, who feel they're above shilling product unless they're whoring themselves in Japan, in earlier and simpler times, big time celebrities like Bob Hope had no compunction with hawking razor blades, cigarettes, and chocolate. He also had no compunction about doing an anti-gay bashing PSA in 1988.
