Americans and Japanese were shooting, bombing, burning, drowning, and stabbing each other by the tens of thousands, and we're supposed to think a bucktooth caricature is "problematic"?! <br /><br />It is a little sad that the desire to "do something for the war effort" meant the comic had to shed all its otherworldly weirdness. (Especially since the initial premise was that it took place far in the future, when this war would be forgotten history.) I suspect that war plant workers, soldiers, and schoolboys during the war might have appreciated a comic which depicted a world where Hitler was a forgotten nuisance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
