Can we share comics with the Dunk Tank? It’s certainly worthy of it, doing that classic Liberal trope of glossing briefly over the things the Nazis were doing to quickly focus on the ebils of gommulism. I only briefly skimmed it, it was really wrong about a lot so I didn’t bother reading more but the characterization of the Molotov-Ribbentop pact as Hitler and Stalin being a twee partnership only for Stalin to be suddenly shocked by Hitlers betrayal is awful.

Tried to find a pirate link to share but it’s pretty new and graphic novels are kind of hard to find online

    To be fair, after his significant blunder of underestimating how quickly the Nazis would attack, he turned out to be an excellent strategist in the war, and despite being inadequately prepared for the attack even the state they were in was significantly due to Stalin (not alone, but included) having years before the Pact identified Hitler and Nazism as a mortal threat that the Red Army needed to prepare for, and pursued various measures to that end.
