I wish more comics would start from this kind of political allegory stance (There's even an allusion to the eugenics movement!). But of course "you can't win 'em all," and as this series progressed into the second volume and introduced a transgendered character, it became less clear when the writer was trying to portray realistic biases against the protagonist "freaks" and when those biases rang true with the writer himself. There were moments that were really awesome, but were sprinkled with things that made me wince hard in offense.
