I know this is a personal thing vs. a society as a whole thing, but my brother's apartment burned down about six years ago and the Red Cross was there right away to help him out with toiletries and about a hundred things that we didn't even think he would need (he lived about five hours away at the time). So I'll be buying those comics, but I can understand what everybody's said above.

(Nobody was hurt in the fire. And yes, every single person, when told of the disaster, asked if he started it (after checking to make sure he was okay). He did not)
