When we were kids we amused ourselves with some illustrated booklets distributed by the publisher Vertex. 70's were timid, and looked in those publications cover the ominous warning of "adult publication." That, for children like us, was an added value. The invocation of maturity as a prerequisite for enjoying the adventures of X-Men or Dough or Fantastic Four, was something that, why deny it, we are filled with morbid reader. Unfortunately, time passed. Everyone in my neighborhood stop being children. Some even left this world. I dedicated myself to my readings. Others, to make money, others, finally, to get drunk or drugged to death. We entered another era. And here comes the surprise. I agree with adults in bars I talk about the Incredible Hulk, Conan the Barbarian, the X-Men or do not know what more gibberish. And one, who believes to be back in a few things, encounter their thirties and even forties whose only cultural life revolves around the adventures of Spiderman or the Silver Surfer. "Generation of idiots? I would not assert such an extent, because these adults to talk business runs have jobs that are supposed to require a minimum IQ. It is clear that these adults that fill the shelves of your home with the bound volumes of superheroes, no one has spoken of the literature. Or maybe it is and not interested. I imagine one of these adults with subnormal residues in the brain sitting at home, reading comics to children who are their only food for thought. These dialogues autism fill me with puzzlement. Can not stand. How can heroes be happening to Smite pants and dropping at a time so great bunch of idiotic? But, as I said, what worries me most is that there are "adults" are in it the culmination of their cultural aspirations. Suppose further that the children of these adult consumers of supermemeces not aspire to much more in your future entertainment. Habemus tontus, who said a teacher of mine in the remote EGB. Come to think of how many of these morons who enjoy superheroes will turn primary teachers, school and, God forbid, college?
