Put up or Shut up! What is your best WWII comic or magazine cover?

A recent pick up. Not sure it's my absolute favorite, but the scan was handy. (And it's got Mussolini for Valiant!)

 

lol Love the pose… Really, history deserves to be studied from periodical publications, documents, and unusual sources, because people and things are way more complex than what you may get from history books.

I recently read a report on Goering’s life and… man, that was pretty disturbing.

 

As far as great covers go, worth to mention are also two awesome books put out in France after the nazist occupation, at the end of the war, by leading french cartoonist Calvo. Unfortunately, I do not own them, but they are worth to be shown:

Dell's "War Comics" was the first comic dedicated completely to the "war" genre (1940)...before America was even technically involved in WWII.

 

Here's my favorite of the short run:

Junior's war covers may be the best things Raboy ever did.
