Having so many people who harmed and killed such high-profile people made others blame the book as being a bad influence on them and kids in general.

Of course if you picked up a copy and read it right now you'd probably find it really tame and see Holden as more of a worthless little prick than any sort of deep profound intellectual.

So basically hype. It's all hype.

So again, why is it important? It really isn't, is it?

Probably just because it's a book that includes all sorts of shit that's useful to teach in a high school english class, such as themes and uh symbolism maybe

Er, what theme and symbolism to qualify this book as a must read? It's something an asspie would write.

Only on a later viewing I noticed that each bus on the picture was actually different, with easily readable personality.


So I decided to draw a comic about these guys, and got two strips up:


Text:
Panel 1: "I wonder if buses live on the Moon?"

Panel 3: "I am Darth Obus! Your planet will be replaced with My Death Highway!"

Panel 4: "Not so fast!"


Text:
Panel 1: "Your itinerary ends here, Auto-Bushi!"
Panel 3: "He attacks with passengers! I can't harm them!"

So, how's it?
