IngelsFan Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Hitler as WWII Horror A large amount of GA Hitler covers involve him being punched or captured and as such are more "realistic". What I am hoping to see here are the ones where Hitler is depicted with a horror image. There are plenty of Nazi and Imperial Japanese pictured as monsters, etc, but how many where the most horrible man of the 20th Century is depicted as a monster himself?

walclark Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 (edited) An interesting subject and I would bet there are lot more splash pages with these types of demonic depictions of Hitler, but the only other one that I can think of is Headline #8. Prize #32 might barely qualify. He is somewhat spectral in the image. On that cover, he just appears to be a frightened ghostly image, but his features aren't altered.

walclark Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 These two would be a stretch, but Blue Circle #3 shows Hitler as a frightened octopus. You could argue that this is a furnace made to look like Hitler and not actually Hitler and that would disqualify it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timely Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 If memory serves, there is a Destroyer splash page in either Mystic or Daring that has Hitler as a snake, a good horror image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaillant Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Not on the cover, but the full Unknown Soldier story in Four Favorites #12 depicts Hitler in an ambiguous way, as the figure of Hitler (as a man) and satan are coincident. This is visually shown in the beautiful double splash opening page (Gino knows what I am talking about… Readcomix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ameri Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 oh, and the top edge of the cover is not trimmed. Whoever added tape to the right top corner used a scissor and snipped off a small piece of the paper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
