    Hitler is very...symbolic. What about one of the good guys? Churchill? FDR (Am I historically accurate?) I can't belive I'm poo-pooing something potentially scandalous. What about Uncle Sam? Or a generic U.S. or British soldier. Holocaust survivor? Uh, skip that last suggestion that would be worse.

    I'm posting a Red Skull that started out to be one of those "Red Skull in Nazi Uniform" and I stopped a bit short of that. I think.

    Nazi stuff is flashy and glamorous, but, wow, creepy. Hitler wasn't Darth Vader or Voldemort or somebody he was a real person and it might hit a nerve or, more likely, me misinterpreted.

    All I can picture is that South Park where Cartman dresses up like Hitler.

    Ungh. Complex. Minefield.

          He still hits a nerve over here. A day care center just got their license revoked because a pic of Hitler was hanging on the wall

                  I say Raoul Wallenberg. Nobody is quite sure what happened to him after Lubyanka. He's all the more astounding considering he'd be Lion Rock sized.

                    I forgot to add. Children drew names and this is the one my child drew. Ironic that I was thinking about making one for my Red Skull. Believe me, FDR would be my first choice. Might actually make one for my golden age JSA megos.

                      You know, Hitler was a monster, and IMO monsters shouldn't be forgotten.
                      Because that also makes their evil deeds less real.
                      I think all kids should learn about Hitler.
                      History is important.

                      Perhaps make a "Hitler defeated", in his bunker?

                              Yeah, maybe if people were better educated about Nazism & Hitler, President Obama wouldn't be likened to him by some.

                              "Nazi stuff is flashy and glamourous"? I'm all for free speech, but I just can't see those responsible for murdering millions of Jews, Catholics, homosexuals, unionists, & political minorities as glamourous.

                              Just my opinion. I do love, though, that you're working with your daughter on her project, WD. She really seems to be your muse when it comes to Megos.
