HGP - INJUN' STYLE!

I always feel really awkward posting some of these pics, because there is a great deal of racial insensitivity floating under the surface. It was a different time, with different social mores. I mean, a newspaper comic starring a character named Big Chief Wahoo who could complain about having to cook by saying "Ugh! Squaw work!" is not exactly PC, or even socially acceptable these days.¹

But have that same stereotype put an arrow in Hitler's ass?

"Ugh. Wolter like. Brave work."

Big Chief Wahoo was created by writer Allen Saunders and artist Elmer Woggon,² and usually appeared in newspapers under distribution from Publisher's Syndicate. Cover taken from Famous Funnies #102. For the record, Famous Funnies is usually considered the first newstand "comic book."

Thanks to Olaf for the tip-off.

1. Note that I didn't even mention Tojo/Hirohito. Honestly, it would be easier just to point out when the Japanese WEREN'T portrayed by racist caricatures.
2. So at least the "Wog" signature is not another random racial slur.
