Tales From The Quarter Bin--For Your WWII RPG Needs!!

Here at Slay Monstrobot, we're all about helping you plan fun activities with friends. And so, at no small expense (cough cough Quarter Bin cough cough), we've provided you with some top secret army files to give you a head start on building characters for you WWII role-playing game!

See--it says "Secret Army Files"!! I'm not sure how they ended up in a comic book, but there you are!


We should note that, post-Crisis, we had a retcon that revealed "Mademoiselle Michelle" was an honorary code name named bestowed upon France's top agent, at least as far back as the French Revolution, and continuing in modern day. So feel free to use that tidbit to spice up your player character!!

From DC Super-Stars #15 (1977)

The Best Cover You've Never Seen--DC Superstars #15 (1977

A tale so big, a regular war comic couldn't hold it:

Yes, seeing Joe Kubert draw the living hell out of Sgt. Rock and the Unknown Soldier disguised as Sgt. Rock fighting over Mlle. Marie while Nazi missiles stand erect in the background just might be the most Freudian thing you've seen all week.

The cover blurb's a total lie, though--neither one wants to kill Marie. Rather, she desperately wants to kill the Unknown Soldier, because he had deliberately sacrificed the lives of her fellow French freedom fighters in order to preserve his own mission. Nice guy.

Anyway...

"Battle Doll of the French Underground"?!?!

Keep heapin' those corpses high, Bob Kanigher. Keep heapin' 'em high.
