Drug Dealers Launder Money With Comic Books

reprinted from captain-america.us

Wow. Economics in comic books...

Investigators in Colorado say they have broken up a massive methamphetamine ring in the Denver area that distributed pounds of the dangerous drug every week and laundered the profits using collectible comic books.

"To launder the money you have to use something that is quick and convenient," Colorado Attorney General John Suthers said at a news conference Monday. "And in this case, they used classic comic books."

If only they had actually read the Batman and Superman books they were using, they might have learned a lesson or two. At the very least, they could have used comics like Countdown.
