More on Ego Comme X Vs. the Librarian

imageAccording to this report, the great European art comics publisher Ego Comme X official held a press conference where they explain the matter about their being bounced from a speaking engagement because they were accused of publishing works that are pornographic, and the truly shocking charge, that they "defend homosexuality." I'm not naive about the existence of moralistic conservatives in Europe, but that charge would sound strange coming from the Pikeville County Defend the Library Coalition, let alone from an official in France. Although if I'm reading the article correctly, that portion of the complaint was later withdrawn. It looks a direct tstatement from the publisher can be found here.
