CAPTAIN AMERICA #1
Captain America Comics #1 German Edition (non-foil edition) The first appearance issue of Captain America Comics #1 is reprinted entirely in German in this issue (this is an interesting issue to have, considering how the main antagonist in WWII was Hitler who led the German forces and there is also a particular irony in having this comic reprinted 58 years later in 1999 in that very same country). Also, the swastikas on the cover have been altered or removed, in an attempt that I believe is to not propagate the hate that the symbol originally represented. Other than the front cover text being in German and the swastikas being removed or altered this is pretty much an identical reprint (minus some other color changes) of the first Captain America front cover appearance.
