Popular Post walclark Posted October 4, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2019 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this cover and Green Hornet #19 are the only two that reference the Japanese-American internment camps. At any rate, I'm happy to have this one in my collection (even if the case is badly scuffed). By the way, I can recommend George Takei's graphic novel, "They Called Us Enemy," for a personal look at the internment camps through the eyes of a child. porcupine48, gino2paulus2, Larryw7 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Uncle Bob Kono was also interned and it had a significant and lasting impact on him throughout his life. He’s still with us 💕. Google him if you want to see his story. He is also a published author. Love this book. Hadn’t had it on my radar. Point Five, Zolnerowich, MrBedrock and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about the internment camps this morning as I read this story on NPR's website. https://www.npr.org/2019/10/04/766755755/before-he-animated-for-disney-he-sketched-cartoons-in-an-internment-camp Comicdey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe either of those books reference the internment camps. By 1944, there were a number of both Japanese and German prisoner of war camps in the U.S. In both the Captain Midnight and the Green Hornet books, the Japanese in the stories wear blue jumpsuits with PW(prisoner of war) written on the back. As I'm sure you're aware, there was an internment camp at Tule Lake, but it was called the "Tule Lake Relocation Center". The "Tule Lake Camp" referenced on the road sign on the Green Hornet cover was 10 miles away from the internment camp. It was a maximum security facility that, among other uses, did house prisoners of war. MrBedrock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
