Lets See those WWII Japanese Covers 8 8

[Hoarder]

Just won this on Heritage tonight. Why this insanely hard to find book isn't officially a classic cover, I have no idea. Does anyone know if any other covers reference the internment camps?

The cover of Captain Midnight 23 has him rounding up escapees from a "Japanese Prison Camp". But no camp is specified.

With today being the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, putting the U.S. into the conflict of WWII, thought this thread should get special treatment today. The patriotism the comics industry showed with some of the best covers ever produced were spurned on in large part because of the unfortunate tragedy. Till midnight, let's see those Japan covers..

I don't think the Japanese used flame throwers as often as the US troops.

Chemical weapons were used in China but biological weapons were still a fantasy. However, there were plenty of germs to go around but fortunately the Germans developed antibiotics that were used by both sides.

I think the first effective antibiotic -- penicillin -- was developed in England. Although discovered by Alexander Fleming in the 1920s, I think it took until around 1940 before it had been refined in a way that could be used to treat infections.

 

I don't believe the Germans had access to antibiotics during WW II.
