At a time when millions of comic books were being read per month, the fact that they were a common denominator between problem kids was not anymore unlikely than the fact that the kids also all wore blue jeans or drank coca-cola (neither of which was blamed).<br /><br />I'm sure that 100% of violent individuals also drank milk and ate pizza and hamburgers as children and attended school.
