A new comic from Crazy Crab (疯蟹) comments on the current civil unrest in Tibet. Last week, 1 million portraits of Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, and Hu Jintao (the four supreme leaders whose political reputations have survived to the present day) were distributed throughout the Tibet Autonomous Region, to be placed inside schools, homes and temples.

Crazy Crab might rightfully be deemed by other Chinese netizens to be Obsessed With Tiananmen Incident Crab, what with his repeated usage of the iconic Tank Man imagery in his politically charged comics.
