NICK FRIGGING FURY.

I feel just awful for missing yesterday, but there were a lot of personal things on my plate.

To make it up to all seven of my remaining readers, I give you this classic slice of alternate history:

Hitler eats temporally tangential lead in FantasticFour #292, by John Byrne and Al Gordon.

Thanks to Olaf.

AUUUUUUUUUUUGGGHHHHHHH!

May I never relive the 90s again.

I don't know who drew the cover of Femforce #131, but thanks for haunting my nightmares forever.

Thanks to you too, rcs.

'THIS MAN...THIS HITLER!"

Well this one almost pulled a fast one on me:

At first I thought this was a genuine Golden Age cover, until I realized that the artwork had a surprisingly Kirbyesque, Silver Age feel (and the logo was oddly modern looking). It turns out that Surprising Comics was a 1999 attempt to reprint Golden Age stories, whose cover was pencilled by long-time Kirby inker Chic Stone, and inked by Tom Hickey. I can't find a direct lift for this pose, but there are quite a few 1960s Kirby covers that look suspiciously similar.

And now you know...

Oh and the character engaged in Mighty-Thor-esque grapplage with Hitler is named 'Nemesis.'

And now you know even more...

This is another one where I can't remember the credit. Anyone wants to take it, it's yours.

Last-Minute Replacement Entry Time!

Olaf just pointed out I accidentally put up something twice today, so I'm replacing that entry with this:

Here Olaf, one of yours!

This occurred in Savage Dragon #34 & #35, of which more info can be found here.

I'm amazed it took me this long to make an error like that.

I Choose To Interpret This Thusly:

"Superman, noticing Hitler out of the corner of his eye...


...knocks a Nazi bomb into his fat Fuhrer face."

You can tell me otherwise, but I won't believe you.

This happens on the cover of DC Special #29, drawn by the incomparable Neal Adams.

If you sent this to me, remind me. I have the feeling I didn't find this myself, but I have no notes to the contrary.

It's Alex Schomberg Week's Appendix!

Found one more cover from the crown prince of Hitler abuse:

While "The Grim Reaper" could certainly be doing a bit more punching, I like his work in the field of flag-trampling.

Art from the cover of Wonder Comics #1, with art by you-know-who.

Thanks to rcs.

Want Some Whimsy?

You've come to the right place...


Well, if your idea of whimsy is a genocidal Hitler spider in a tank being battled by a super-powered worm, such childlike wonder can be found in Taffy #2.

rcs discovered this here.

Go Team Venture!

Or more accurately, "Go Team Personification of the American Spirit and Personification of Child Endangerment!"


Still, the spirit is there.

Uncle Sam's scrappy sidekick Buddy uses Hitler as a step-stool in National Comics #38, with art by Alex Kotzky, who is probably better known for his work on Apartment 3-G.

"And It Was Written By a Canadian!"

Get back here, you wacky Nazi:

According to the source of this pic:

This 60-page comic book is about the early days of World War II and was published in 1941 by the Musson Book Company Ltd. of Toronto. It was purchased for 25 cents at a cigar store in Hamilton in the winter of 1941-42. The title is Mean Scamp-F and the author is Pte. Harry Hall, from the 46th Battalion Canadian Infantry, 1914-1918.

This is a fascinating old comic book – and it was written by a Canadian.

Emphasis mine. Because that amuses me for reasons best left unexplored.

Thanks to rcs.

THIS IS SEVERELY NSFW!

Or safe for anything, really.

Here's an insane section from an Italian horror comic where the Wandering Jew cuts off Hitler's wang.

Allow me to repeat that:

Here's an insane section from an Italian horror comic where the Wandering Jew cuts off Hitler's wang.

The Wandering Jew.

Cuts off.

Hitler's wang.

Really, I could not make this shit up.

Thanks to rcs. May I never have to know how you found that.

Not Really Sure Why Satan is So Prominent

Just like in the 80s music, we should focus less on Satan, and more on the good stuff flying under the radar:



I have no art credit for this, but if I did, I would totally try to ask what the hell is going on.

No pun intended. Really.

Sorry today's is late...

But, we've been chasing Hitler all day.

Hitler scarpers from being whupped by tweens in Boy Comics #7, with art by Charles Biro.

Thanks to Olaf, who is probably a lot more punctual than I am.

Why is Hitler So Sad?

I'll tell you why:



It's 2010 and this silly blog I had no idea would last more than a week is still abusing him!

I assume this cover was drawn by Mac Raboy.

Sorry this is sorta half-assed, but this is my day off too.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Not Even Remotely Timely

I was originally going to put this up around Christmas, but I received plenty of more suitable pics.

Leave it to Rob Liefeld's comic company to manage to make Santa a musclebound, knife-wielding, pouch-bedecked psychopath. But wait...

Is that Hitler in the pile?


Eh, close enough.

This tastelessness appeared in Santa the Barbarian #1, and was actually drawn by Dan Fraga (who is, I suppose a step up, artwise from his crosshatch-prone employer). I actually hadn't heard of this comic until recently, since I pretty much stopped reading comics for a decade when they all started looking like this.

And no, Virginia. To the best of my knowledge, there has been no Santa the Barbarian #2.

HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM HGP!

Sweat it Out, Adolf!

You will be getting punched. Oh yes.



I have no idea who drew the cover to Prize Comics #37, but I'm hoping Yank and Doodle moved up the food chain.

It's Golden Age Policy...

All heroes must go after the middle-aged, unarmed politician first, while allowing your underage sidekick to tackle the Luger-toting career soldier.

Way to follow protocol, Eagle.

Also, per Weird Comics #20 (artist unknown), that Winston Churchill is still getting himself into scrapes.

An admission: I almost just credited Olaf for this out of habit, even though I found this my own damn self.

With All the Guns Trained on Hitler The Last Few Days...

I would never have expected the Red Skull to be the one to finish the job...

Thanks to rcs for the pic. Issue and artist unknown.

BONK!

Really, what else is there to say, but...?

BONK!

This mysterious beflagged man BONKS Hitler and Tojo together on Power Comics #2, art signed "DEL," which may by Maurice del Bourgo.

Oh, and seriously, anyone and everyone out there who wants to draw me a Christmas Krampus spanking Hitler, by all means send it to HitlerPuncher AT gmail DOT com. My grinchy little Hitler Punching heart will grow three sizes if you do.

We'll Meet Again...

I question the wisdom of this plan, Sam...



Sam and Buddy do their Slim Pickens impression in National Comics #30. It looks like the artist might be Reed Crandall.

Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails?

Hardly.

Arrows and Slingshots and Shards of Broken Glass?

NOW THAT'S WHAT BOYS ARE MADE OF!

Hitler and the gang are about to get what for in Boy Comics #4, with art by Charles Biro.

Thanks to Olaf.
