Blackstone CopyOne of the toughest Caps to find, featuring one of the most graphic covers ever published, the jarring image on the front of this book depicts Nazis burning Jews alive in ovens. Many of the early comic creators were European Jews, and they knew what was happening to their families and friends overseas. They used the popular medium of comic books to spread the word about the Holocaust and make people aware of the atrocities that were taking place under Hitler’s regime during World War II.
Certain comics encapsulate memorable moments in human history, and this issue is one of the most important in that category, a graphic reminder of the horrors of WWII and a warning to future generations to be vigilant in hopes of avoiding such tragic events from ever happening again. At any grade, this is a comic worth owning, beyond the obvious gravity of the subject matter, this is an Alex Schomburg wartime cover, a genre all its own. This Blackstone Collection copy has undergone some amateur restoration work, which does not detract from the overall appeal of this book, the colors retain their punch and the action at the center is as compelling as ever.
