I mean, I'm certainly not one to dissuade John Byrne from doing John Byrne things, but I cannot imagine how a comic book built around fighting nazis could avoid controversy today.

That’s a shame. Nazis being punched in the face by good guys should never go out of style.

Today we apologize for everything. MAD magazine parodied the effect in the Sixties, predicting future movies showing Harry Truman apologizing to Hirohito because exploding US warships gave headaches to Japanese pilots at Pearl Harbor.

The first time it was suggested that Hitler could have been rehabilitated I knew we were in trouble.
