Comic From the 60s Explains Why Invasions Are a Bad Idea

Well, invasions to enhance your prestige. This 5 page comic (I left out the first page since it was just the narrator, the Wasp, talking about herself) tells the story of  the ruler of another planet who wanted to make himself great in history by conquering another planet. Unfortunately, he didn't have much of endgame planned. Instead of being revered, he ends being widely despised by his people for plunging them in an expensive war with no apparent benefits. Seems way too familiar today....
