After reading the entire comic, all I can say is "Wow". It’s offensive, but remember, it was 1942.
"US War Department comic strip included in the first edition of the "POCKET GUIDE TO CHINA", a 75-page booklet distributed to US soldiers (Army and Navy) during their stay in China during World War II."
After my trip, I love the Japanese. They’re polite, very helpful, and are so stylish. I’d really like to go back and live in Japan for a year.
Side notes: Here’s a couple’s 3 week trip to Japan. Japundit would have been a good blog to have read before my trip.

I read this comic on a comic book board (don’t laugh!) a few weeks ago.
It is so offensive . . . at the same time, I’m happy to know something like this would not be published today (at least to such a large audience).
