bizarre Kirby WWII Nazi horror cover; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 7 (CBI)Jack Kirby distinguished himself during the wartime era by illustrating stories with titles like "The Strange Mystery of the Ruby of the Nile and Its Heritage of Horror" and did so with great aplomb, slowly honing his technique, which would continue to evolve throughout the time period, and well on through the history of the art form. His early work was the highlight of Captain America Comics, and this cover is no exception, the ramping up of the action and chaos that defined Timely's Golden Age offerings are on full display. Just like the cover announces, this book presents "4 thrilling adventures from the personal files of Captain America plus other great features," yeah, pretty much sums it up.
