He's Still Got It

There is nothing


more satisfying


than seeing


nazis


get their asses


kicked.


And it's extra satisfying when those ass kickings are drawn by a living legend like Joe Kubert.

Sgt. Rock: The Prophecy is a pretty remarkable book. Oh, it's about heroes like other comic books. And don't get me wrong; I love my Superman and Batman. But guys like Sgt. Rock and Easy Company were real. They really did save the world.

The Nazis weren't just the guys the Justice Society fights in flashbacks. They were a real army led by a real maniac who really did want to conquer the world. And with no Green Lanterns and no Supermen, it was the everyday people who had to stand up to them.

So they did, and they won.

How's that for heroes?
