20 Most Controversial Comics Covers Of All Time

17. Life With Archie #16

Known for its apple pie, wholesome, all-American tone, Life With Archie waded into the controversial debate over gay rights with issue 16. While gay marriage is now legal in the States, back in 2012 when this issue was released, America was still knee deep within the debate. Specifically, this issue€™s cover is doubly controversial, as one of the guys getting married is wearing a military uniform. Only one year earlier, US federal courts barred the U.S. Military€™s €œDon€™t ask; don€™t tell€ policy, which banned openly gay individuals serving in the armed forces.
