"Between 1941 and 1945, Hitler was pummeled on comic book covers by
everyone from Captain America to Wonder Woman. Take That, Adolf! is an
oversized compilation of more than 500 stunningly restored comics covers
published during World War II, featuring America's greatest
super-villain. From Superman and Daredevil to propaganda and racism,
Take That, Adolf! is a fascinating look at how legendary creators such
as Joe Simon, Jack Kirby, Alex Schomburg, Will Eisner, and Lou Fine
entertained millions of kids on the home front and buoyed the spirits of
GIs fighting overseas by using Adolf Hitler as a punching bag." This is a great series of books that shows the comics as the greatest generation saw them!
Excellent stuff!
