| Whoa whoa whoa Mon-El, who said anything about Hitler? |
Adventure Comics vol.1 No.314 (November 1963)
“Hitler’s right!”
The villainous Alaktor manages to switch the personalities of Superboy, Ultra Boy and Mon-El – the Legion’s three most powerful members – with the minds of history’s greatest villains. Respectively, that’s Adolf Hitler, John Dillinger and Nero, so the above panel is not merely the moment when Mon-El adopted white supremacy.
It’s amazing that, in the thousand years between 1963 and 2963, no greater villain than John Dillinger rose to infamy, but who are we to judge the world of the future? Maybe the 30th century has a real thing about those creepy, edge-of-the-upper-lip mustaches.
