At the @cbldf.bsky.social panel today, the fact that the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund owns the trademark and logo for the old, repressive, Comics Code came up. It was proposed CBLDF do a book with artists contributing their ideas about what a new permissive code would look like. #sdcc

A legal look at the book ban bill, HR 7661, is on the CBLDF's website. I'll post key points here this week – in the meantime, check out the full story for the bill's true aim, its constitutional flaws, the odds of passage, and why we should not be afraid. cbldf.org/2026/03/a-le...

HB 7661 is indeed on our radar – I (Jeff Trexler) have been working with other First Amendment advocates on strategic response practically since this bill hit the House calendar. Our ultimate goal: making sure this bill stays as dead as it seems. My take here: cbldf.org/2026/03/a-le...
