Today’s Flag Day comic is really two comics in one.
First, there’s the vintage, Nazi-fighting art from Our Flag Comics #4. It struck me how different times were back in 1941 and how united we were (by the end of that year) against “the bad guys.” These days, alas, we can’t even all agree who the “bad guys” are.
Second, there was this incredible, completely over-the-top caption in the 1941 art. I thought it was jaw-droopingly bizarre, but also a lot of fun. So I decided to share it with you. But—fearing that the type would be too small—I enlarged it for readability. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
