Episode 22. The Positive Aspects of Frederic Wertham, the 1950s foe of comics by Alex Grand

This video discusses the achievements of Frederic Wertham, and how they should be taken into account when judging the man who wrote the 1954 book, Seduction of the Innocent. All too often, people have a reduced impression of him based on this phase in his life trying to link comics to juvenile delinquency, which contributed to the formation of the comics code authority. However, before and after this time in his life, he lived a full and interesting life contributing to society, academia, and comic book fandom in ways that should be more fully understood, before pre-judging the man.
