Here's the final appearance of the rather overbearing Super-American, drawn by Seymour "Sy" Reit, co-creator (with Joe Oriolo) of the friendly ghost, Casper! Reit also illustrated nearly a hundred children's books before his passing in 2001.
Every page a jawdropper. "Overbearing" doesn't even begin to describe it; it reads like the author fervently believed that Timely's stuff like "Captain America Meets the Reaper!" was far too wishy-washy and if he didn't hammer the message home on every page, poor idiot American readers would immediately cave in to the Hun. Love that splash panel, though.
