While I don't own the comic in question, that issue was published in 1987 in what was then marketed as DC's "New Format", which was limited to direct sales comic shops. Like the contemporaneous issues of "Swamp Thing" and "John Constantine: Hellblazer", it perhaps should have carried a "Suggested for Mature Readers" tag. From the cover, it looks like it was one of the titles of the time not submitted for Comics Code approval. Even with Code approval, a certain degree of nudity (implied or otherwise) was allowed. Portrayals of code approved nudity depended on such factors as "camera angles", strategic placement of hair and/or shadows, or obscuring whisps of smoke/steam/clouds or whatever. Your report fogs the nudity, so I can't judge how it compares to the Code-approved nudity in Wonder Woman #1 (1986) or certain Direct Sales NEW TEEN TITANS issues from 1984 and 1988, let alone the code-approved nudity of Jean Grey on the final pages of UNCANNY X-MEN #136 (1980). As God's agent on Earth, the character of the Spectre has been particularly grim and Old Testament in his meting out of Vengeance and Divine Retribution, particularly in the early-mid-seventies and beyond. Suffice it to say, the 1987 series probably isn't suited for most ten year olds and should not have ended up in such a package. However, Dollar Tree did not create that package, nor did DC Comics. The mother's ire should be directed toward the packager. This can also be used as a teachable moment in parental responsibility and the appropriate and inappropriate uses of sensuality in pictorial-narrative storytelling.

so many grammar errors, my head is going to explode.

slow news day? oh it's utah. HAHAHAHAH @ all the grammar errors. Gee Wiz (language toned down for Utah)

Slow news day?

Also "isle" should be "aisle." And yes, I know I transposed two words in one of my sentences, but hey, I'm not being paid to write here.

Here are some basic writing corrections for Ms. Cutler: The first sentence is a question and should end with a question mark. The second sentence is missing a word to make grammatical sense. One way to fix it would be to put the word “that” between “kids” and “ended.” There should be two hyphens in “10 year old.” The phrase “ it was meant for children” should be “they were meant for children,” since the pronoun is referring to “comics.” There should be an apostrophe after “kids” since it is possessive in “kids isle.” "Superhero Comic Book Spectacular" should be in single quotation marks instead of double, since it appears within a quote that already has correct double quotation marks. The explanation “because other retailers couldn't sell them” does not make any sense or explain anything at all. It would be different if this were a direct quote, but to paraphrase the manager and leave it unexplained does not tell the reader anything. There should be a comma after “them” in “...if they have them too.” “No nudity and a lot less violence” is not a sentence. It could have been connected to the previous sentence with a comma and the word “with,” or some similar construction. The next sentence starts also off with a substandard construction: “Another note” should be followed by a colon instead of a comma. Also, the verb “is” should be “are” in order to agree with the subject of the sentence, “comics.” Finally, “out of print” should have two hyphens. On a less mechanical note, most journalism classes teach writers not to quote people in a way that makes them sound stupid. That would have been nice. I tried clicking on the link to the author's name, but received an error message.

Author: moron. Parent: idiot. Kid: LIAR NON-STORY = FAIL.

Only in Utah does this "think of the children" BS qualify as "news".
