What if the Government Shutdown Happened in Comics?

As many people know parts of the U.S. Government is shut down and it has affected many families including my own. I am still going to work but my households’ funds have taken a big hit. It may change the dynamic of what I review and when but it won’t stop what I do. Although, it feels like we are in a comic book and it makes me wonder sometimes.  This is the longest government shutdown in history and it makes me think if this happened during some of the more famous comic book arcs some of the stories, I have read over the years would have had such different endings.
