The 10 Cent War: Comic Books, Propaganda, and World War II
James J. Kimble-Trischa Goodnow
One of the most overlooked aspects of the Allied war effort involved a surprising initiative - comic book propaganda. Comic book superheroes and everyday characters modelled positive behaviours and encouraged readers to keep scrapping. The 10 Cent War presents a riveting analysis of how different types of comic books and comic book characters supplied reasons and means to support the war.
