Timely Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 (edited) Back in January 1996 I wrote a "history making checklist" on Hitler covers for the ComicBook Marketplace (issue #31) . I made a few errors on that list and have found several more since then. I am covering the years from 1954 and earlier. Am I missing any covers that you know of that are not on my list below? So far I have found 82 covers. Let me know if I missed any or if you have anything else to add, thanks!

Timely Posted August 3, 2005 Author Posted August 3, 2005 That's right, I saw that one a few years ago but forgot about it again. Thanks! West
Arty Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 (edited) Famous Funnies #102 Blue Beetle #32 Bomber Comics #4 (Sensation #13 swipe!) I'm not sure if these qualify: Daredevil #18 (Hitler, Mussolini and Hirohito? as dummies on cover) Miss Fury #4 (Noted on CGC label as "Hitler in picture on cover") Edit: Checked Heritage and also found these: Target Comics V3#8 (noted on label ) U.S.A #9 (small but noted on label) 4 Most V2#4 (Hitler, Tojo, and Mussolini appear on the cover as pumpkins ) The Human Torch #5 (#4) Check out the back cover!!! Alternative cover for Young Allies #1 Edited August 3, 2005 by Arty
nearmint Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 Hey West, I remember writing a letter to the editor in response to your list with four additional Hitler covers, one of which was Real Life #3. Gary was kind enough to print pictures of the covers I mentioned along with my letter. I can not for the life of me find that issue, although I know I have it somewhere. Do you happen to remember my letter, and what issue it was in? I'm wracking my brain here.
Timely Posted August 3, 2005 Author Posted August 3, 2005 When I go home today I'll look, I remember a few letter responses about the article but have no recollection of what was in them. West
Timely Posted August 3, 2005 Author Posted August 3, 2005 Thanks Arty, I knew about most of those but I totally spaced. I think I have forgotten more than I have remembered. . See what working at CGC does to a man! thanks for the list! West
Sal Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 stupid question; you're looking for contemporary titles, i take it... FF 292. i will say there aren't any in the Hit Comics run, so you can take that off your list, if you're searching cover-by-cover
jim1968 Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 Master Comics #29 has a Hitler and Hirohito cover. Although he isn't shown a box on the cover of Master Comics #47 plugs the appearance of Corpl. Hitler Jr. in the Capt. Marvel Jr. story. I'll keep digging in the Fawcett's, there has to be more!
Timely Posted August 3, 2005 Author Posted August 3, 2005 Looks like I found two more Hitler covers, Zip Comics #26 and Blue Beetle #34. West

nearmint Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 Well, this is turning into a great thread. Good work!
Comicdey Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 Here's the bomber 4 I just won off Ebay. Oops, it's not there now. Hopefully I'll have it in a week or two.
