I Compiled a list of Hitler covers way back in Comicbook Marketplace #31. There are well over 100 of them.

Here's one you don't see every day. This post-code issue of Black Magic gets my vote for best totally unknown Hitler cover.

And here's my Great Comics #3, which I've posted before, but have now rescanned better (finally learning how to work the damned scanner!).

Guess again.

Is this the most recent Hitler cover..?

 

[shrunkenhead]

C'mon now, it's a little better!! nyuk nyuk

I think DC also had a few Hitler/nazi covers in the early 80s, but I'd be at a loss to name specific issues...

Hitler covers are almost always appealing, but because of who he is, is there a premium for covers featuring him on them?

What's the CGC grade on that Great Comics? I have one that should probably be slabbed, but then I can't read about Futuro taking Hitler to Hell.

 

What I probably should do is photograph the darn story with my digital camera so everyone can enjoy the great propoganda that it is.

[shrunkenhead]

It graded a 3.5, which I thought was tough but fair. The book has terrific gloss but the spine has some serious trouble goin' on. I thought it might get a 4.0, at best.

 

If ya wanna slab but are worried about not reading it anymore, the Futuro story is available in reprint in NEC's Anti-Hitler Comics #1 (I don't think there ever was a #2). Shouldn't run ya more than 4 or 5 bucks online.

Generally yes, the premium is pretty severe if they were published while the war was ongoing and the victor was as of yet undecided. Hiltler covers that were published post WWII sometimes carry a light premium, but not too bad really.

YES, yes you should.

Shrunkenhead,

That Black Magic is a great piece of esoterica - and fits into the arguement that the Atom Age should extend to the end of the dime era when considering non-superhero, non-continuing character books.

Not the highest grade copy around, but this is one of my favorite books.
