EDITORIAL NOTE
STRICTLY SPEAKING
Sade called his epic novel Justine "A Tale of Vice Rewarded and Virtue Chastised"
and that's what you'll see in TABOO ILLUSTRATED. In these pages, innocent babes
are cruelly mistreated by sadistic degenerates. The good girls are rarely rescued
and the bad guys usually get away with it. Why is this so? Because when it comes
to certain unfortunate realities about our own kind, we speak the sooth.
Artists hold up mirrors to the world in which they live, and what's reflected,
however beautifully rendered, isn't always pretty. Good doesn't always triumph
over evil. In that way, the wild flights of extreme fantasy filling this book
are more "realistic" about the moral universe we all share than is comforting.
Redemption, uplift and the defeat of vice at the hands of virtue may be the raw
materials of Hollywood's dream factory, but the dreams here are as dark as the
world outside.
In that world, the defenseless often suffer at the hands of the powerful without
relief. Righteous retribution does not descend upon the vile perpetrators vile
debauchery. Any unblinking overview of our modern world reveals that great technological
progress has not been accompanied by moral advancement over much of the globe.
Sade's observation that "the history of humanity is the history of its crimes"
holds as true today as it did two hundred years ago.
If only evil people did evil things, evil would be in short supply, which clearly
it is not. It is the recognition of this harsh reality that gives the work of
our artists such power and impact. They reveal something fundamental about human
nature that resists all attempts to tame it. The truth they tell isso subversive,
it can only be rendered in pen and ink.
But to recognize the evil that men do is not necessarily to embrace it. While
the bad guys in our harrowing fables may be identifiably human, they are never
sympathetic, unlike their victims.
To quote a favorite character from a much brighter comic universe, The Tick, we
must oppose evil "because evil is just plain wrong." We may indulge
ourselves in its fictional representation but we may never allow ourselves to
fall under its seductive sway in our treatment of others.
