Climate crisis activist Greta Thunberg recently appeared in DC Comics and Frank Miller’s Dark Knight Returns: The Golden Child.
Thunberg appears at the very end of the book as Carrie Kelley as Batwoman has assembled a group of protestors to take on Darkseid. Thunberg is one of the protestors.
Darkseid describes the protestors:
“Look at them…fists clenched in righteous rage…Eyes glistening with hope and determination…”
He adds, “…Yes. They will serve me well…once they are turned.”
Not only does the book feature Greta Thunberg, but it also takes issue with President Donald Trump and his supporters.
The book shows crazed minions of the Joker as Trump supporters who violently attack people peacefully protesting against President Donald Trump although it appears he is running as Governor in this storyline.

Is Darkseid the one behind Global Warming?
https://superman.fandom.com/wiki/Darkseid
According to writer Mark Evanier, Jack Kirby modeled Darkseid physically on actor Jack Palance, while “the style and substance of this master antagonist were based on just about every power-mad tyrant Kirby had ever met or observed, with a special emphasis on Richard Milhous Nixon.”[2]
...The son of King Yuga Khan and Queen Heggra, Prince Uxas, second in line to the throne of Apokolips, plotted to seize power over the planet. When his brother, Drax, attempted to claim the fabled Omega Force, Uxas murdered him and took the power for himself; transforming him into a rock-like creature, and taking a new name: Darkseid.[1][3] At some point, he fell in love with an Apokoliptian scientist named Suli, with whom he had a son, Kalibak; however, Suli was poisoned by Desaad on Heggra’s behalf, who believed that Suli was corrupting her son. Following Suli’s death, Darkseid’s heart grew even colder, and he had Desaad poison Heggra, finally becoming the supreme monarch of Apokolips. Darkseid had briefly been forced by his mother to marry Tigra, with whom he also had a son. After murdering his mother, Darkseid had both Tigra and their son, Orion, banished from Apokolips.[4]
The destructive war with the rival planet, New Genesis, was stopped only with a diplomatic exchange of the sons of Highfather and Darkseid. Darkseid’s second born son was surrendered to Highfather, while Darkseid received Scott Free, who later became the master escape artist Mister Miracle. This eventually turned out to be a setback for Darkseid, with his biological son growing up to value and defend the ideals of New Genesis in opposition to his father. The prophecy foretold that Darkseid would meet his final defeat at the hands of his son in a cataclysmic battle in the fiery Armaghetto of Apokolips.[1]
Seeing other gods as a threat, Darkseid invaded the island of Themyscira in order to discover the secret location of the Olympian gods, planning to overthrow the Olympians and steal their power. Refusing to aid Darkseid in his mad quest, the Amazons battled his parademon troops, causing half of the Amazon population’s death.[5] Wonder Woman was able to gain her revenge against Darkseid for killing so many of her sisters by placing a portion of her own soul into Darkseid. This supposedly weakened the god’s power as he lost a portion of his dark edge.[6]
Darkseid’s goal was to eliminate all free will from the universe and reshape it into his own image. To this end, he sought to unravel the mysterious Anti-Life Equation, which gives its user complete control over the thoughts and emotions of all living beings in the universe. Darkseid had tried on several other occasions to achieve dominance of the universe through other methods, most notably through his minion Glorious Godfrey, who could control people’s minds with his voice. He had a special interest in Earth, as he believed humans possess collectively within their minds most, if not all, fragments of the Anti-Life Equation. Darkseid intended to probe the minds of every human in order to piece together the Equation. This has caused him to clash with many superheroes of the DC Universe, notably, the Kryptonian Superman. Darkseid worked behind-the-scenes, using superpowered minions in his schemes to overthrow Earth, including working through Intergang, a crime syndicate which employs Apokoliptian technology and later morphed into a religious cult that worships Darkseid as the god of Evil.

I still can't believe I kept reading all through DKII: The Dark Knight Strikes Again. And why was Miller drawing everyone's feet twice normal size??
As this is a speculative fiction story taking place in an alternate universe (or maybe even a dream or imaginary tale) and not part of Batman/Superman canon, let alone the REAL WORLD.
Cearly Leftists are once again relying on “alternative ‘facts’” to make their points.
You know what they say about men with big feet, don’t you?
SUPER JUSTICE WARRIOR LEAGUE, snore
They have to buy big shoes.
>>The book shows crazed minions of the Joker as Trump supporters who violently attack people peacefully protesting against President Donald Trump
Such rubbish. During the campaign there were coordinated Democrat activists who incited violence and then cried “victim” when they got their photo moment.
Since I was a kid reading comics, DC was always sh*t to me, preferred Marvel, but yeah, Marvel has gone to libtard progressive sh*t so now Marvel is utter sh*t to me. Not getting rid of my early editions of Thor, etc. tho.....

This child knows she’s a liar and a hypocrite. We know she’s mentally unwell.
Truth: She should be on suicide watch. When all this nonsense collides in her undeveloped brain the emotions will be overwhelming. Unless she’s a total sociopath with no conscience at all; this will present the worst kind of conflict in her toddler brain.
