Bonus HGP bucks for using my own Solomon Stone drawing as an element. I've never cared too much about the Jays, but I suspect this new "Hitler Punching" strategy will certainly pay off this year.
A Blog About Hitler Getting Punched.
But, with a name like "Destroyer," I just expect a little more...well...destruction. Also his costume is the sort of thing you ONLY see in the Golden Age.
Ah well, Hitler Punching is like pizza. Even when it's not very good, it's still pretty damn good.
The Destroyer knocks the Fuhrer in the Kopf in Mystery Comics #9, with Pencils by Al Gabriele and inks by the hardworking Syd Shores. Image submitted by Olaf.
*Actually, upon review, he might be punching him, but there's just as good a chance he's kneeing him. But it's in the head. No doubt about that.
Blue Beetle lets his love light shine in Blue Beetle #32, artist and writer credits unknown. As usual, click to enlarge and think happy thoughts about Olaf for the submission.

Gotta think Mussolini got the short end of the stick here: his disembodied head isn't just getting stepped on, it's getting stepped on by an android on fire.
Thanks again to Olaf for this image, which is from All-Winners #6, for which I unfortunately cannot find artist credits.
EDIT: Olaf does it again! Credits for this issue can be found here. It looks like the art is either by Al Avison, Bill Everett, or possibly both.

THE VARIANT "CAP TRIBUTE" COVER TO THE ASTONISHING ADVENTURES OF STALIN & CALE #1!
This probably requires a little backstory. Unfortunately, I'm not prepared to give it all away just yet. But rest assured, more will come of this. And when it does, you will never look at Harry Dean Stanton, Ted Nugent, or Finnish Nazi Archeologist Yrjö von Grönhagen the same ever again."I was staying at the Tropicana Hotel in Hollywood. One day we heard all this noise. We looked across the parking lot to the other side where the noise was coming from and suddenly the whole door of this room came flying out onto the balcony, and there stood John Cale. He couldn't work the doorknob, so he just knocked the door down,right off the hinges."Unless I find or receive another Tribute pic, this concludes Cap #1 Tribute Week. We now return you to your regularly scheduled Hitler-punching, already in progress.

This is a still from Hitler - Dead or Alive (I think you know which position HGP endorses). Hat tip to rcs for passing this image on to me. More info can be found here.
The King Has Spoken.
Olaf, who is edging out Flex in contributions here, submitted this original piece of Hitler art, which he claims to have found in "the private collection of D.J. Fontana." Great work!
Feel free to submit your own original works of Hitler-punchery to HitlerPuncher [at] gmail [dot] com.

If one has any doubts about the awesomeness of this image, let's review the checklist:
I think it's safe to assume this image is AWESOME.
Picture courtesy of the variant cover of Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness #1, and is painted by Arthur Suydam.
Oh. Hell. Yes.
A winner is me.
This Powerful Primate Punchery appears in Marvel Apes #1, written by Karl Kesel, drawn by Ramon Bachs, and colored by Javier Mena Guerrero (who does not have a decent web profile yet).
Captain Berlin doesn't need this kind of trash in his town.
And, get this: there's a TRAILER!
Captain Berlin video directed by Jörg Buttgereit, who is apparently quite the controversial fellow. Comic artist unknown. More information located here, if you speak German. Which I clearly do not.
A true American classic that all Hitler-punching imagery strives to emulate. Note that this event happens March of 1941, 9 months before the U.S. entered the war.
For the next several days, HGP will be cataloguing those that paid homage to this iconic example of Hitler Fisticuffs. Are all of the tributes successful? Well, if you mean by creating an image as powerful and unforgettable as this: probably not.
But if you mean showing various interpretations of Hitler getting punched, then: Hell, yes.
Tune in tomorrow for the first tribute.
This classic image is, of course, Captain America #1 by Jack Kirby and Joe Simon. And it is just as glorious now as it was then.
I have NO IDEA were this originally came from, who drew it, or exactly how serious they are. However, this is clearly some sort of Wizard's Battle between Stalin and Hitler. In Russian and German.
Heavy.
A digression: this drawing's subject matter is a serendipitous concidence, but I cannot elaborate on the reason why just yet.
A further digression: I suspect it will be DAYS before I will stop laughing at "NEIN!"
Thanks to The Alibear for hooking me up with this bafflingly sweet comic.
PSEUDO-EDIT/FINAL DIGRESSION: I have had this entry scheduled for nearly a week, sitting in the queue with my ignorance in view for no one but myself (or possibly Flex) to see, when Olaf sent me this link this morning: THE FULL COMIC WITH TRANSLATIONS! I decided to leave the original entry intact, as a document to my childlike sense of wonder upon first seeing this. Now I'm off to actually read this work of what is either genius or insanity.

Abe Lincolns vs. Robot Hitlers.
That's almost Mike Mignola awesome.
This sweetness appeared in the one-shot, Tales From the Bully Pulpit, by Benito Cereno and Graeme MacDonald. I discovered its existence here, and MUST one day read this in its entirity.
A special shout-out to all who created this and/or distributed it, for giving me an opportunity to create a "Lincoln Punching Hitler" tag. It made my day.
Mickey Mouse is the most miserable ideal ever revealed...Healthy emotions tell every independent young man and every honorable youth that the dirty and filth-covered vermin, the greatest bacteria carrier in the animal kingdom, cannot be the ideal type of animal...Away with Jewish brutalization of the people! Down with Mickey Mouse! Wear the Swastika Cross!You know what HGP has to say about that?
A link-dump is the epitome of laziness, but this is kinda cool, yet somewhat outside of our purview:

Thanks to CT for the heads-up.
No, seriously, read this book. It's outstanding. You'll love it. Even if you aren't a totally backwards comics nerd like Flex.
I'm not really sure who drew this cover, but if anyone could contact me with the information, it would be greatly appreciated.
