    Dom Irerra was more open about his sexuality than a lot of the comics of his time, and it always made me respect him.

    Rewatching Dr. Katz and thinking about the time period it was in, sometimes Dom feels absolutely subversive to the times.

    His obsessive love for Dr. Katz is something a lot of men comics would have been afraid to commit to, even to this day.

      What’s the context? I couldn’t find anything online.

      Rewatched most of Dr Katz recently after not watching it in forever and Dom was really a highlight. Every scene I remember with him was good and seemed to hold up. I didn’t get a lot of the show as a teen watching it, but there’s so much gold in it now watching it as an adult.
