More Patriotic Hitler Abuse!

From the creator of Mondo Men Battle Hitler comes this other gem (sadly unfinished):

Scott Saavedra may consider these failures, but he clearly has a different yardstick for success than I do. Because, as Scott McCloud says (uh...more or less), it's the space between the last panel and my mind where the Hitler Punching occurs...

Thanks to rcs for pointing me to this.

I Never Thought I'd See The Day...

When I would be able to say:

"I just watched the late Billy Mays

Oxiclean Hitler's Clock!"

I feel no shame for that pun.

And Chip Wesley, my fellow bartender at Thunder Matt's Saloon, should feel no shame (and indeed no small amount of pride) for this fantastic reimagining of my Solomon Stone pic! I loved it enough to put up an increasingly rare "2nd post of the day."

You Know What I Love?

What I really, really love?

People wearing flags who punch Hitler so hard he flips.

As a public service to those of you who prefer their Hitler-punching undiluted by a couple whizzing around dressed like human bullets (personally, I think they add a bit of charming circus whimsy, but I'm no arbiter of taste):


Ah...Punchtacular.

P.S.: I originally wanted to make another Cap Tribute Week in honor of the upcoming Bicentennial Plus 33, but I've realized that I've only got a few options left that I know of. Besides, Steve Rogers would be proud to share Hitler Punching with his fellow Americans.

Life Imitates Art

Remember postcard week?

This little fella does:

I know Hitler's not technically in this, but he is in spirit...

Like yesterday, rcs submitted this from here.

Ham-Hocked!

Reasons to keep a kosher table:


The ham has Hitler all over it!

rcs submitted this action-packed piece of treyf, which he found here.

What If....

...the Human Torch decided to immolate Hitler two days in a row?

Neil sent me these three pages a while back (click to enlarge):


...but the real money shot is here:

Torch had no choice...You saw him...he had a gun.

Pages are from What If? #4, vol. 1 (Aug '77), "What if the Invaders Stayed Together After World War Two?" written by Roy Thomas with art by Frank Springer (who passed away a scant few months before I started this blog).

Punching Hitler - With FIRE!

Oh, Human Torch.

Out of all the androids that were capable of bursting into flame, you're my favorite.

That's probably why.

Oh, and Torch's teen sidekick, Toro, is doing good work as well.

This is an unpublished sketch by Carl Burgos from 1941. I don't know where Olaf found it, but I am definitely intrigued...

Now Here's Something You Don't See Every Day

Artist David Hahn has this to say about the following drawing:

"A gorilla in a spacesuit about to clean Hitler's clock, from my sketchbook. That is all. "

I beg to differ.

He also has an eyepatch.

You can't take that away from him. God, I love Ape on Nazi violence.

Olaf submitted this drawing, which originally appeared here.

My Cap Runneth Over

Okay, that was almost as awful as Sunday's toilet humor, but last week I picked up Cap #600, and was treated to this panel:


The flying tooth alone makes me love looking at this. Add in "The living extension of every American's outrage at the tyranny of the Third Reich," (which I am this close to making my tagline - heck, I still might...) and you have one happy Hitler-Puncher.

You can click this to enlarge. Hell, I'm thinking of making it a bookmark.

Art by Alex Ross, written by Paul Dini, and lettered by Todd Klein. Image scanned from Captain America #600, but originally appeared in Captain America: Red, White, & Blue (which I somehow don't own).

Our Mission Statement, In Its Purest Form

You can find a much more detailed version here, but I think this:

Pretty much says it all.

Thanks to rcs, who submitted this from here.

Postcard Week, Day 7!

Unlike the actual post office, HGP is open on Sundays!

And Stalin ain't the only one to drop a 'Dolf duece this week...¹

This "Plumbing Race" and the much-ballyhooed "Toilet Gap" (whereupon the U.S. was disturbed to learn the Soviets could flush Hitler 75 times over, to America's 22) set the future tone for much of the Cold War.

Olaf and The Alibear both independently submitted this puppy, which he apparently found at the Hitler Library, a site (to be perfectly honest) that I cannot tell is pro- or anti-Hitler...

---

1. Oh, how ashamed I am of that comment.

Postcard Week, Day 6!

Disclaimer: This may or may not actually be a postcard:

But you know what? I bet you could stamp it and mail it anyway.

Art by "Kem," the signature of Kimon Evan Marengo.

Submitted by Olaf. In case you didn't guess.

Postcard Week, Day 5!

Those wacky Bolsheviks...


At least Stalin didn't make him use the Soviet toilet paper...

Olaf submitted this. I have no idea who drew this or where he got it from.

Postcard Week, Day 4!

Lest yesterday's entry made you think HGP has a strong pro-dog bias, just remember: only the cute ones.

Hitler-dogs get strafed just like everyone else.

Apparently, this poscard opened to a poem that I wish I could read. The art is credited to H.D. Smith, and the poem (or the card) was published by Pan American Publishing Co., El Paso, Texas.

If anyone would like to write a poem based on the title "Hitler at the Gates of Hell," I'll gladly put it up for all to see.

Olaf again, via here.

Postcard Week, Day 3!

What do adorable, fuzzy dogs think of Hitler?



Pretty much what everyone else does.

Olaf again, via this site. Artist unknown.

Postcard Week, Day 2

Seems an awful waste of a good bottle of wine...


...But, I suppose the French have plenty.

This postcard is signed by Joseph Lenard, but I can find no more information on the artist.

Postcard week continues Wednesday!

Another fine pic submitted by Olaf, from Vintage Postcards.

Interlude: A Poem...

I'm interrupting POSTCARD WEEK for a submission from a reader.

Last D-Day, I received the following in an email:

A Poem (Or Song, I Suppose) About Punching Hitler In The Face

"He was something I couldn't stand
So I simply pulled back my hand
Oh, it was my saving grace
When I punched Hitler in the face.

It angered me, I reeled my fist back
I shot forward and leaped to attack
Kept goin' on about the superior race
So I punched Hitler in the face.

I jumped on him, all ready to strike
Because of his talk about the Third Reich
I didn't have no sword or mace
So I settled for punching Hitler in the fa-ce.

And if you said I could do it again
I'd come at him with even more men."

(...I-I wrote it myself. I hope...it still counts. Or at least brightens your day a little bit. Or makes you laugh at my PHAIL.)

Not at all! All forms of Hitler abuse are an EPIC WIN here at HGP. I just wish I had been more timely in my response! My only excuse: I am a lazy, procrastinating weasel.

Thanks to Anna Göransdottir for the submission! Here's your HGP Fun Bucks!

Remember that you can submit here by sending any original art, writing, or whatever to HitlerPuncher AT gmail DOT com.

Postcard Week, Day 1!

Through Rain, Sleet, Snow, or the Gloom of Fascist Night, HGP will be bringing you a weeks worth of fine, mailable Hitler Abuse!

Well, except Sunday. And any government holidays. Also, I'm on my break, so only one window is available. And, the rates just went up, so you'll have to attach an extra 2-cent stamp.

But other than that, get ready for at least 6 days or so of Fuhrer-Smacking Fury that you could use to mail your darkest secrets to Frank Warren.

Note: Several of these pictures (as the watermark says) come from this site, so if you really like them (and have the scratch), you can buy one for yourself! Or, you know, buy one for your friendly neighborhood Hitler-Punching-blogger...

And without further ado, let the mail-order-mayhem begin:


Check your mailbox tomorrow for more!

I can't tell the artist's name, but I can tell you it was Olaf that tipped me off to this picture, and the site.

HULK EAT!

Anagrams love to punch Hitler!


This photoshop was made by someone with the screenname "guvnor" as part of a photoshop project of video game anagrams.

Ali sent me this. Thanks, hon.

My Sentiments Exactly

They don't make movies like this anymore.



Or maybe they do. I don't know.

At any rate, this movie was originally released in England under the less inspiring name of Let George Do It, and in the Soviet Union under the positively mystifying name of Dinky Do. It starred the late George Formby, who is popular enough in the UK to have his own society. No idea who drew the poster, but whoever it was certainly focused on what was important.

Thanks to Olaf for the pic.

Giant Fist Is Done With Hitler...

...for now.



Don't fret! I'm sure the Giant Fist will be back for more Hitler Punching soon!

Thanks to rcs for the propaganda poster.

The Giant Fist Invites a Friend...

I'm not normally one to repeat myself, but I have been given a screen capture from this video that fits right in with this week of GIANT FIST ACTION:



The only thing better than one fist is two!

Tune in tomorrow for more FISTING!¹

Thanks again, rcs!

1. That didn't come out right.

The Giant Fist Keeps on Crushing

"Who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him?" ¹


...apparently, acclaimed Mexican cartoonist Miguel Covarrubias did.²

---

1. This HGP Moment of Culture^TM was been brought to you courtesy of William Shakespeare, who never punched Hitler, but would have...given the chance.
2. This HGP Moment of Hitler Torture was brought to you by Olaf

I Know Chinese Democracy Was a Letdown, But...

...what did Axl do to deserve...oh...

That "Axl."

This Giant Fist (Uncle Sam's fist, no less) is reaching from a General Motors poster by G. Laivson, of whom I know nothing else. Once again, Hitler clearly needs a manicure (if not the blood of a virgin).

Thanks, Olaf!

Of Course, the Actual UN Never Did Anything This Awesome

Because their just an assembly of the world's countries, not a...

HUGE FUCKING FIST!

I'm pretty sure the term "United Nations" is actually a coincidence, but no reason not to enjoy a giant fist taking a crack at der Fuhrer AND picking up il Duce for the spare.

This political cartoon walloping Hitler was created by Willard Wetmore Combes, whom we will be seeing again...

You know the drill. Thank Olaf again, folks.

"ALLIIERTE!"

Nothing says "harmony and brotherhood" like a multicultural group riding a giant fist into Hitler's jerk face.

"Alliierte" is German for "Allies," in case you were wondering. This cartoon comes from a Swiss Magazine, and is entitled "März 1945: Alle gegen Hitler" (March 1945: All Against Hitler). The caption probably more or less reads "The latest war news. We fight!" (my best guess).

I guess I could ask Olaf. He submitted it.

A Little Punching Music for Your Saturday Morning

Happy Birthday (+1 day) for the fearless leader of this blog. Hopefully, he's just waking up now - hungover from a delirium of hitler punching (or punching guys who look like Hitler. Whatever) and the rampant drug abuse that goes with most Hitler punching. Anyhoo, how's this for a little Saturday morning pick-me-up?

Der Fuehrers Face - Spike Jones

That was Spike Jones and his City Slickers. The song was originally recorded in 1942 but you can grab it on 1994's The Spike Jones Anthology: Musical Depreciation Revue.

This is a retread of this post, so y'alls can just stream the song instead of having to download it.

Happy D-Day Anniversary!

In honor of both D-Day and my recent birthday, I think I am going to celebrate by having a mini-theme week - huge fists!

In the spirit of that combined Allied offensive, here's the Big Three guiding a single fist into Hitler's punim.

Oooh! Right in the Yalta!

Thanks again to Olaf, though I have no idea who the original artist was.

Rube Goldberg Has Big Plans....

...and they're surprisingly uncomplicated.


Comics legend Reuben "Rube" Goldberg, who didn't invent the delicious sandwich, but did get an award named after him, came up with these devices.

Once the ball I drop rolls down the ledge to knock the milk over to shrink the string to move the sword to trigger the guillotine to slice the sausage, which will swing into the door that moves the sickle to pop the balloon that will startle the bird who will fly off the scale which wil cause the foot to squish the squid to squirt the ink into my fountain pen, I will write a thank you note to Olaf for this. Because today is my birthday, and Hitler-punching is really the best present I could ever ask for.

That Looks Painful...

Good.


I don't much to say about this, other than it's Russian, it's violent, and it happens to Hitler.¹

Good enough for me.

Thanks again, Olaf.

1. Also, Adolf really needs a manicure. And a dentist.

I Love Noseart!

Which is apparently what I'm about to show you is called.

So, yesterday, Supes gave Hitler a Kryptonian Knuckle Sandwich. But we all know Ma and Pa Kent didn't raise no lawless vigilante, so the next logical step would be for him to take Adolf to the proper authorities:

And what better way than to fly on the nose of a bomber? I submit there is none.

According to this website, the proper credits for this picture are:

Lt. Hiram O Bevins, 61st Fighter Squadron. P-47C 41-6232 HV-B. Detail view of artwork situated on fuselage.

Oh, and get this: a very fuzzy picture of Supes punching Hitler or the other side!

Hat tip: Olaf

It's a Bird! It's a Plane!

It's a fist.

Okay, I've got to admit that I may check what sites are linking to me, on account of I'm narcissistic and stuff...

But sometimes my neurotic quest for attention pays off, as I found this fantastic piece of artwork on the gamefaqs forum:


As a fan of Hitler Punching in general, and Original Hitler Punching Art, I had to put this on here. Thankfully, Dan Magee (theRedDeath) , who draws the webcomic Bad Guy High, was cool with it. You should definitely check his stuff out.

Victory Bond Triple Threat!

I'm not even going to go for the easy Canada joke here. I just find it face-warpingly awesome that they apparently had their choice of three separate ways to finance Hitler-abuse during the War:

Hmmm..."Attacked by an eagle and bulldog" is nice...as is "Hitting him with a honking big hammer"...but you know, my money is definitely earmarked for "Throttled and then devoured by a giant chicken."

But really, nothing's bad on that menu.

Thanks to Olaf for the pic.
