47 Comics and Graphic Novels About World War II

"Unfortunately, many of the most important lessons humanity should have learned from the war seem to be fading. Antisemitic attacks have skyrocketed, nationalism and authoritarianism threaten vulnerable populations across the globe, and a power-hungry dictator has once again embroiled Europe in a devastating war. So even if, like me, you prefer to focus on other aspects of world history, it is vital to occasionally look back on this seminal period and recognize the parallels between our history and our present.
To that end, I have collected here 47 comics and graphic novels about World War II. Why 47? I was aiming for 84 (one for each year since the war started), but I conked out at 47. Still, 47 is not shabby. As you may have noticed for yourself, World War II is extremely well-represented in works of nonfiction and fiction, including comic books." - Eileen Gonzalez/Book Riot
