It was an autobiographical comic about the Holocaust? How's that not a representation of history?

Never said it wasn't one. Just never heard of it. Wasn't aware it was considered obscene either. Will look into.
Maus was subject to one of the many ongoing book bannings in the United States and was removed from multiple libraries due to containing "adult content."
It's got some depictions of violence that I think parent groups object to, so that kind of obscenity. There's technically nudity in some of the dead bodies I guess?
