A modern-day take on the classic Robin Hood legend, where the bold outlaw steals medical supplies and gives them to those in need.
Description
We all know the story of Robin Hood. Personally, my introduction was from the classic Disney animated movie. Most of us have seen the Kevin Costner or Russell Crowe versions as well, but I realized that I have never seen an updated version: a modern-day Robin Hood, where he doesn't exactly "rob from the rich to give to the poor," as the saying goes, but he instead steals medical supplies and gives them to those in need, or those who can't afford them or have no health insurance. I am sure a lot of people can identify with how expensive health care is in the U.S. these days, and this comic book is a commentary on this, and other, issues. But don't be fooled, it's also a straight-up adventure comic that, hopefully, captures the spirit of the Robin of old.
