Wonderful stuff. Thanks Fra. I always had a soft spot for The Web - even his Mighty Crusaders revival.

The story form ZIP 31 is a fictional version of the story of the destruction of the town of Lidice.
[The Nazis destroyed Lidice as a reprisal action for the assassination and death of Reinhard Heydrich, a high-ranking Nazi leader. The Germans falsely claimed that two families from the town of Lidice were somehow connected to the assassins and the Czech resistance.
In Lidice, the Germans shot the men of the town, and then deported most of the women and children. Next, they burned the town to the ground. They promised to obliterate the name of Lidice from the map of Europe.]

These WEB stories are some of the most vehement anti-NAZi stories i've seen in comics.

Thanks for this, Fra. Very impressed by the early stuff by Novick and (probably) Cassone with the strong anti-Nazi themes. After that, as often happens in comics, the hero gets passed down to lesser talents who don't float my boat so much. I'm intrigued that three or four issues in, Raymond promises to come back and (presumably) propose to his attractive student... I guess that was too risque for the times?
