classic Schomburg WWII Hitler cvr/storyThe undeniable truth is that anything bearing the image of Adolf Hitler demands instant attention and typically, in the world of comics, goes for bigger numbers than Nazi-free content. But it should also serve as a reminder that we should never forget the loss of life and destruction that held sway over the planet during WWII. The artist that drew this cover, Alex Schomburg, is displaying a restraint rarely seen in his wartime output, which reveled in over-the-top sensationalist battle scenes featuring a variety of Golden Age heroes. That being said, there is still plenty to look at on this cover, from Charles Dickens to the Alamo, the history comic never looked as appealing as this example, as these comics were typically adorned with the face of a general or president. It’s no wonder this is a hot item whenever a copy surfaces.
