For this issue we discovered another classic from the archives. "The Grave Vandals", last published by FREW in 1992. It is a wonderful analogy for our own relationship with indigenous Australians and their culture, which has been disparaged and denied by many white Australians in the past. The pompous and superior notion that the Anglo Celts are in some way culturally superior has been widely held since the days of Terra Nullius (meaning land belonging to no one). In this story we find young Rex outraged by the lies and prejudice of a history book which asserts that the Negro population never created or maintained any higher culture.
