For many, including myself, artists, no matter the craft, always looked to the industry to try and find out what the mainstream culture thought. Readers, like myself, were always in awe of what the New York Times Best Seller List cultivated as what mainstream readers wanted. It also added Manga and Comics best sellers, as that even told the industry what the mainstream wanted. Sometimes the “Industry Standard” helped create more for the audience, but the disconnect between the mainstream now represents a large cultural influence. Americans don’t just read American writers anymore, but does the larger cultural influence of other countries represent the American way? But Twitter/X itself does prove, as of 2024, a new cultural battleground for art and artists.
That panel looks like the type of illustration you'd see in a Watchtower magazine.
