• Kentuckians feared the post-war world. So they burned their kids' comic books (kentucky.com) — A recent historical look at Kentucky’s mid‑century comic book burnings connects directly to Shepherdsville today, highlighting how Rep. Thomas Huff, a Shepherdsville Republican, publicly criticized his local library for carrying the graphic memoir “Gender Queer.” The story traces how past fears over comics led to bans, public burnings, and industry self‑censorship, and argues that current disputes over graphic novels and LGBTQ themes echo those earlier moral panics.
