Image Comics co-founder who sexualizes children calls for Trump to be ‘executed for treason on the White House lawn’

Larsen, famous for his creation of the "Savage Dragon", wrote, "Donald Trump being executed for treason on the White House lawn is the closure America needs to start the healing process."

As Bounding into Comics reports, Larsen's political activism has extended into his "Savage Dragon" comic as the site posted covers from several of his issues. In 145 from 2009 the titular hero fist bumps with Barack Obama. Issue 253's cover had Dragon endorsing the Biden-Harris ticket. And his cover of the 2017 226 issue had a kaiji sized Trump chasing Dragon and shouting "Kill them" and "Kill the aliens."

Larsen's latest tweet was in reference to the August 8 FBI raid of Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate over the allegation that Trump and his team have not returned all documents that are deemed government property under the Presidential Records Act. Some reports assert that the materials the FBI sought concerned classified nuclear documents, a claim Trump has called "a hoax."

"Wondering if Trump stealing classified documents about nuclear weapons is, at last, the tipping point where the GOP finally tries and distance themselves from the guy or if they'll attempt to paint that as totally cool," Larsen wrote.

Larsen has consistently tweeted about Trump, such as a 2019 tweet where he posted an image mocking Trump supporters as sheep.

And a 2016 tweet that read, "One group saw a sexist, racist, homophobic, politically naïve reality show huckster, the other a political outsider out to make things great."

But Larsen has been accused of sexism multiple times in the past. As Comics Alliance reports Larsen bemoaned that an "an all woman jury" was charmed by Neil Gaiman's "English accent and sad story" when they awarded him character rights in a 2010 lawsuit with Image Comics's Todd MacFarlane.

In issue 236 titled "Kids night out!" of his Savage Dragon comic, Larsen, draws two children in a sexual assault. It's visible directly on the Image Comics website in the digital preview of the comic. On the page two splash, the Savage Dragon's children are watching a television program. On the show a small boy can be seen kicking another child, raping him, and then running away as he pulls up his pants.

The "Savage Dragon" writer/artist also received backlash for a 2015 tweet where he wrote "I'm tired of the big two placating a vocal minority at the expense of the rest of the paying audience by making more practical women outfits."

Larsen maintained his defense of women in skimpy, sexualized outfits later in an interview but qualified them saying, "I’m not championing sleaze by any means. My point is that I prefer stronger designs over weaker ones."

Larsen's "Savage Dragon" comics, which once inspired a children's morning cartoon, have grown increasingly sexualized over the years, including veering into sexualized depictions of children.

As BleedingCool reports the comics in 2017 focused on a storyline involving the Savage Dragon's son, Malcolm and his continued quest for threesomes. One issue's cover featured Malcolm holding up someone he was sleeping with as she shaved her genitals (issue 233).

BleedingCool said Larsen was known for "pushing content acceptability over the decades" and had "been pushing it further regarding sexual content." His comics depicted more graphic illustrations of sexual encounters, threesomes, and interspecies orgies.
