Paper is a weapon of war! A mighty weapon!

With Veteran’s Day this past weekend (unless you’re the Federal Government, then it was Friday), I thought it would be a good time for another patriotic comic book PSA.

  1. Do they want you to recycle the comic? It doesn’t give instructions for comics…or do they fall under the ‘magazine’ category? Three catridge wrappings are probably wasted on that page alone!

  2. That’s a good point. I think they probably fall under magazines, but they were printed on some super cheap newsprint back then.

  3. […] A reminder from Captain America: “Paper is a weapon of war! A mighty weapon!” […]
